Features
Serial copy management system
This unit utilizes the serial copy management system that
permits digital-to-digital recording for one generation. You
can record CD sound or other digital formats through a
digital-to-digital connection. (See page 42.)
Date Function automatically memorizes the recording
date and time
The year, month, day, day of the week, hour, minute and
second are automatically memorized in the subcode area
during recording, so that during playback you can display
this data to check when the tape was recorded. This
function is especially convenient when recording live
performances, etc.
Three sampling frequencies
Recording/playback can be done with three sampling
frequencies (48 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 32 kHz).
48 kHz: For analog and digital input signals in a standard
mode.
44.1 kHz: For compact disc, pre-recorded DAT tape and
analog input signals.
32 kHz: For analog input signals in a long-play mode.
Long play mode
This unit can operate in long-play mode. Analog input
signals can be recorded or played back for up to four
consecutive hours when the DT-120 DAT cassette tape is
used. The sampling frequency will be 32 kHz in the long-
play mode.
Visible cassette loading
You can view the tape operation through the lid of the
cassette compartment. Due to a revolutionary new transport
mechanism, cassette loading time has been significantly
reduced.
Excellent sound quality
1-bit A/D converter
For the A/D converter section which converts analog input
signals to digital signals, the unit employs a 1-bit A/D
converter which theoretically generates no zero-cross
distortion for a clear, elegant sound quality.
Pulse D/A converter
Superior playback performance is achieved with a 1-bit D/A
converter.
SBM (Super Bit Mapping)
Super Bit Mapping reduces noise at the frequency levels
most discernible to the human ear, and re-integrates sound
information subtracted during the A/D conversion process,
greatly improving the dynamic audible range and sound
Quality of the recorded signal during analog recording.
44.1-kHz analog recording capability
By supporting the recording of analog sources at a
sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz, the DTC-60ES allows you
to record from DAT tape to a MiniDisc recorder through a
digital-to-digital connection.
Rich variety of subcode information
This unit can record subcode information such as Start IDs,
program numbers, Skip IDs, and absolute time data,
enabling you to quickly locate tunes and display the
playback time in the same manner as when playing
compact discs.
Digital fade-in/fade-out
Professional sounding fade-in/fade-out of either digital or
analog signals can be accomplished by use of the FADER
button.
Post edit recording of sub codes
You can record or rewrite the following sub codes after the
audio signal recording has been completed.
Start ID: Signifies the beginning of a selection.
Program number: Gives a number to the selection.
Skip ID: Signifies the beginning of a portion to be skipped.
End ID: Signifies the end position of recording/playback.
Since sub codes are written on the tape separately from
audio signals, the audio signals are not affected.
