Loading data using the S/PDIF or adat digital signal
You can load data using the S/PDIF or adat digital signal via the DIGITAL/DATA IN jack.
*Use an external device that supports 44.1 kHz sampling frequency (the same
as the VF-16)
Connecting to an external device
Connect the DIGITAL/DATA IN jack to the digital
output jack of the external digital device.
<Notes>
The DIGITAL/DATA OUT jack accommodates either
the S/PDIF (optical) or adat digital signal selected.
Though the S/PDIF (optical) and adat digital signal
use the same connector shape, the signal formats are
different.
Do not do anything, such as unplug the optical cable,
that interrupts the digital signal until the loading
operation is completed. Otherwise, the unit may
generates a noise which damages an external device.
When using the S/PDIF signal, if your DAT only
provide the coaxial (RCA) digital input jack and does
not provide the optical jack, use the optional COP-1/
96kHz (optical/coaxial converter).
Do not connect digital signals for both directions
between the VF-16 and the external device (i.e. the
digital output of the VF-16 to the digital input of the
external device and the digital output of the external
device to the digital input of the VF-16), which may
form a digital loop and cause feedback.
Setting the external device
1. Make preparations of the external device for outputting
the digital signal.
2. Locate the beginning of the pilot signal for the song
data.
*See the operation manual of the external device for
the detailed information.
Loading data
You can load data via the "Load PGM" menu in the
SETUP mode.
