Sony mds-e11 User Manual

This MD recorder uses the Serial Copy Management
System, which allows only first-generation digital
copies to be made of premastered software via the
recorder’s digital input jack.  An outline of this system
appears below:

1 You can record from digital program sources (CDs, DATs

or premastered MDs) onto a DAT tape or recordable MD
via digital input jack on the DAT or MD recorder.
You cannot, however, record from this recorded DAT tape
or MD onto another DAT tape or recordable MD via the
digital input jack on the DAT or MD recorder.

2 You can record the digital input signal of a digital satellite

broadcast onto a DAT tape or recordable MD via the
digital input jack on the DAT or MD recorder which is
capable of handling a sampling frequeny of 32 kHz or 48
kHz.  You can then record the contents of this recorded
DAT tape or MD (first-generation) onto another DAT tape
or recordable MD via digital input jack on the DAT or MD
recorder to create a second-generation digital copy.
Subsequent recording from the second-generation copy
onto another recordable DAT tape or MD is possible only
through the analog input jack on the DAT or MD recorder.
Note, however, that on some BS tuners, second-generation
digital copying may not be possible.
