rate convertor is not installed in your connecting digital
electronic device (e.g., MD player), recording is not
possible. Please see the user manuals for the electronic
devices for further details.

electronic device (e.g., MD player) to the SPDIF output
connector cannot be used as digital output. All output
data from the SPDIF output connector has copyright
protection information included.
CAUTION
Please be careful, as there are several types of cables for
connecting a digital electronic device (e.g. MD player)
to the digital audio-out connector, depending on the
