Signal flow
CD/MD/DAT
Since the UA-5 implements SCMS, a song containing copy-prohibit flags (such as a
song digitally copied from CD to MD) that is input via the Digital input connector
cannot be recorded on your computer or output from the Master output jacks or
Headphone jack.
* The UA-5 does not support audio formats of professional digital devices.
It is not possible for the inputs from Input jacks 1 and 2 or the Input jacks 3 and
4 to be mixed with the input signals from the Digital input connector and
recorded.
Built-in sample rate converter
The UA-5 is able to convert the sampling frequency of an incoming digital signal in
real time. (See the block diagram on p. 14.)
< Example >
48 kHz -> 44.1 kHz
32 kHz -> 48 kHz
The digital signal will be converted into the sampling frequency specified by the
sampling frequency select switch, and recorded.
This also the digital output of a BS (Broadcast Satellite) tuner whose frequency
changes automatically to be digitally recorded with high quality, without having to
change the settings of the UA-5 or your application.
Set this to match the
sampling frequency of
the application that you
are using.
