Notes

You cannot make digital recordings when the source is a multi channel digital source.

All the OPTICAL and COAXIAL jacks are compatible with 96 kHz, 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 32 kHz sampling frequencies.

It is not possible to record analog signals to the components connected to MD/DAT (STR-DE985) or MD/TAPE (STR-DE885) and VIDEO jacks with only digital connections. To record analog signals, make analog connections. To record digital signals, make digital connections.

The sound is not output when you play a SACD disc on the SACD player connected to the CD/SACD OPTICAL IN jack on this unit. Connect to the analog input jacks (CD/SACD IN jacks). Refer to the operating instructions supplied with the SACD player.
