“UNFINALIZE” is shown in the information display as the unfinalizing procedure is performed.

Upon completion, the normal display is shown.

Bypassing the FS Converter (Sampling Frequency Converter*) for More Efficient Digital Recording

* known as Sampling Rate Converter.

The FS converter of this unit performs the conversion of digital sig- nals from sources that use sampling frequencies other than

44.1kHz to the sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz, which is neces- sary for recording the signals to a CD-R or CD-RW disc.

• When the FS converter is turned off, the converter is bypassed if the digital signal of the source has a sampling frequency of

44.1kHz and when analog and multiple input recording are per- formed.

If source sampling frequencies of 32 kHz or 48 kHz are detected, the FS converter is activated automatically and the sig- nal is routed through it.

When the FS converter is turned on, all signals to be recorded are routed through it regardless of the sampling frequency, even the 44.1 kHz digital signal is passed through it as the converter works as a filter to reduce signal fluctuation in the disc record- ing. For this reason, having the function set to “ON” is recom- mended for most recording purposes.

When recording specially encoded discs such as dts*1, HDCD*2, etc., be sure to turn the converter off (setting to

“OFF”) using the following procedure (see step 4).

Note

When recording from the 3-CD changer, the sampling rate con- verter is always turned off.
