Recording on MD

Basic section

Sampling frequency

Three types of digital signals are usually used according to the sampling frequencies. The sampling fre-

quencies vary depending on the types of digital equipment as shown below.

32 kHz : A mode broadcasting of BS tuner, etc.

44.1 kHz : CD, MD, etc.

48 kHz : CS tuner, B mode broadcasting of BS tuner, etc.

In general, high-quality recording based on digital signal transmission is not possible unless the source

and recorder components use the same sampling frequency. As this unit has a built-in sampling rate

converter, digital signals with 32 kHz and 48 kHz can be recorded by conversion to the MD sampling

frequency (44.1 kHz).
