One of the problems of bit-for-bit comparison of a signal recorded by MD: I wonder if
the problem could have to do with the
sample-rate-converter in the MD? I've often had the nagging suspicion that the
sample-rate-converter is not defeatable.
My theory is that even when the input signal is 44.1, the sample rate converter
resamples the signal at the MD's (slightly
different) 44.1 clock. The theory is that it *never* tries to lock the MD to the clock
recovered from the S/PDIF stream.
Anyone know for sure? If this is true, an alternate way to get a known signal onto an
MD might be to burn the test signal
onto a CDR and then transfer it using one of the combo MD-CD decks. I bet that
copying from the internal CD player
*doesn't* go through the sample-rate-converter.
