This system incorporates a sampling rate converter so it can convert 32 kHz and 48 kHz digital signals
to the sampling frequency of CD.
Three types of digital signals are usually used according to the sampling frequencies. The sampling
frequencies vary depending on the types of digital equipment as shown below.
32 kHz : Standard and long-hour modes of DAT, etc.
44.1 kHz : Standard mode of DAT, CD, MD, etc.
48 kHz
: Standard mode of DAT, etc.
(DAT : Digital Audio Tape deck)
In general, high-quality recording based on digital signal transmission is not possible unless the source
and recorder components use the same sampling frequency.
