Hello everyone. Belated Happy New Year. This is my
first time on-line since the 30th of December, and I
am just now catching up.
I work weekends at a radio station, and often have
alot of free time (such as when we broadcast the
Metropolitan Opera for the week), and I like to spend
it recording MDs (before we even get into the
copyright thing...I am bringing CDs from home and
making compliations...Never have any time at home to
play).
The station recently replaced its old Technics CD
players (which had optical out) with brand new Denon
Professional CD decks (which don't have optical out).
The Denon decks have two types of digital output:
XLR (I think that what it is called) which is
described as "balanced"; and a single RCA plug which
is described as "unbalanced". Of course it has the
usual RCA analogue outputs.
I want to record digitally onto a Sharp MT-15.
My questions:
1. What is meant by "balanced" vs. "unbalanced"
2. If I want to use the RCA plug digitial output, I
obviously need a patch cord that is RCA -> mini. Is
there a special variety of this configuration that is
needed to handle the digital signal, or will any RCA
to mini cable do the trick?
Thanks for your help.
James
