when the connected equipment can process signals

 

with sampling frequency of 96 kHz or 88.2 kHz.)

The audio recording becomes Dolby Digital even if you selected LPCM when using a recording mode other than XP.

Audio Mode for DV Input

You can select the kind of audio when recording from the unit’s DV IN terminal (¼ 25).

[Stereo 1]

Records audio (L1, R1)

[Stereo 2]

subsequent to original recording.

[Mix]

Records both Stereo 1 and Stereo 2.

When recording bilingual broadcast, select the type of audio in advance from “Bilingual Audio Selection” (¼ left).

Incorrect settings can cause noise to be output which can be harmful to your ears and speakers, and audio will not be recorded properly on media such as mini discs.
