S/P DIF DATA INPUT

Loading data using the S/PDIF digital signal

You can load data using the S/PDIF digital signal via the

[S/P DIF DATA INPUT]

(coaxial) jack.

*Use an external recorder that supports 44.1 kHz sampling frequency (the same as the VF80EX).

Connecting to an external recorder

Connect the

[S/P DIF DATA INPUT]

jack to the digital

output jack of the external digital recorder.

<Note>

Do not do anything, such as unplug the coaxial cable,
that interrupts the digital signal until the loading
operation is completed. Otherwise, the unit may
generates a noise which damages an external recorder.

If your digital recorder only provide the optical digital
input jack and does not provide the coaxial jack, use
the optional COP-1/96k (optical/coaxial converter).

Do not connect digital signals for both directions
between the VF80EX and the external recorder (i.e.
the digital output of the VF80EX to the digital input
of the external recorder and the digital output of the
external recorder to the digital input of the VF80EX),
which may form a digital loop and cause feedback.

Setting the external recorder

Make preparations of the external recorder for
outputting the digital signal.

Locate to the beginning of the pilot signal for the song
data.

• See the operation manual of the external recorder for the

detailed information.
