Guide to the Serial Copy Management System

An MD recorded through a digital input cannot be used to make another recording with digital input. As a digital audio component, this MD deck conforms with the Serial Copy Management System standards. The Serial Copy Management System restricts copies made by recording digital signals to first-generation copies only.

However, subsequent recording from the first-generation copy onto another recordable DAT tape or MD is possible through the analog input jack on the DAT or MD deck.

There are three general rules that apply to this unit.

Rule 1

You can record from digital programme sources (CDs, DATs or premastered MDs) onto a DAT tape or recordable MD via the digital input jack on a DAT or MD deck. You cannot, however, record from this recorded DAT tape or MD onto another DAT tape or recordable MD via a digital input jack on the DAT or MD deck.

Rule 2

You can record a digital signal input from a digital satellite broadcast onto a DAT tape or recordable MD via the digital input jack on the DAT or MD deck which is capable of handling a sampling frequency of 32 kHz or 48 kHz. (This unit supports 44.1 kHz only.)

You can then record the contents of this recorded DAT tape or MD (first-generation) onto another DAT tape or recordable MD via digital input jack on the DAT or MD deck to create a second-generation digital copy. Note, however, that on some BS tuners, second-generation digital copying may not be possible.

Rule 3

You can record a DAT tape or MD recorded via the DAT or MD deck’s analog input jack onto another DAT tape or MD via the DAT or MD deck’s digital output jack. You cannot, however, make a second-generation DAT tape or MD copy via the DAT or MD deck’s digital output jack.
