From this display, you can set the basic parameters such as
recording source and sampling frequency.
1
Source (Sampling Source)
Determines the input connector via which the signal to be
sampled will be received.
AUX IN
Analog audio from the AUX IN/SAMPLING IN
jacks is recognized as the recording source.
resample
Audio signal from the output of the DTX900 is
received internally and recognized as the
recording source.
B
Mono/Stereo
Determines whether new samples will be recorded as stereo
or mono samples.
monoL
The L-channel signal will be recorded as a
mono sample.
monoR
The R-channel signal will be recorded as a
mono sample.
monoL+R
The L-channel and R-channel signals will be
mixed and recorded as a mono sample.
stereo
A stereo sample will be recorded.
C
Frequency
Determines the sampling frequency. The rate at which digital
readings are taken is referred to as the sampling frequency.
Higher sampling frequencies result in higher quality sound.
Normally, this parameter should be set to “44.1kHz,” the
highest setting. If you wish to obtain a lo-fi sound, select a
value other than 44.1 kHz. At settings other than 44.1 kHz, the
sound monitored during recording may be different from the
recorded sound, depending on the source signal.
