On a VIDEO CD with PBC (playback 
control) functions, the menu screens, moving 
pictures and still pictures are divided into 
sections called “scenes.”
Super Audio CD is a new high-quality audio 
disc standard where music is recorded in the 
DSD (Direct Stream Digital) format 
(conventional CDs are recorded in the PCM 
format). The DSD format, using a sampling 
frequency 64 times higher than that of a 
conventional CD, and with 1-bit quantization, 
achieves both a wide frequency range and a 
wide dynamic range across the audible 
frequency range, and so provides music 
reproduction extremely faithful to the 
original sound.
Types of Super Audio CDs
There are two types of discs, depending on 
the Super Audio CD layer and CD layer 
combination.
• Super Audio CD layer: A high-density 
signal layer for Super Audio CD
• CD  layer
1)
: A layer that is readable by a 
conventional CD player
A Super Audio CD layer consists of the 2 
channel area or the multi-channel area.
• 2 channel area: An area in which 2 
channel stereo tracks are recorded
• Multi-channel area: An area in which 
multi-channel (up to 5.1 channels) tracks 
are recorded
1) You can play the CD layer on a conventional CD 
player.
2) Since both layers are on one side, it is not 
necessary to turn the disc over.
3) To select a layer, see “Selecting a Playback Area 
4) To select an area, see “Selecting a Playback Area
