4 Getting started

Setting the

digital recording

level

One of the advantages of digital-

to-digital recording is that you

don't have to set recording

levels—and risk distortion by

overloading the disc. With pre-

recorded material, the digital level

has usually been optimized and

you shouldn't need to change it. If

you're making a digital copy of a

CD, DAT or MD that was not

optimally produced and that was

consistently under-recorded, you

can boost the overall level by up

to +20dB. Remember though,

that any peaks in the original

recording run the risk of

distorting the copy.

In many other digital recording

applications, you may also have

cause to boost the recording

volume since the volume of some

digital sources can be relatively

low, but again, if there are any

peaks in the source material, you

run the risk of momentary

distortion.

It's also possible to reduce the

digital recording volume, but in

most cases, this is not desirable.

However, if you're putting

together a mix CD (various tracks

compiled from different sources),

and there is a track which stands

out as generally louder than the

others, then you might want to

reduce the level of that track.

Note that this feature will not

remove distortion already on the

source material.

Once changed, the new digital

recording level remains until you

change it again, or reset it. Each

digital input has its own level

which can be set independently.

Note: If you are recording DTS

encoded audio CDs or HDCD

format CDs, the digital recording

level must be set to 0.0dB for

recording.
