ZONE2 & RECORD IN PARAMETER SETTINGS
DIGITAL ANLG (Analog) DMIX (Downmix)
The SDP-40HD passes digital audio
from the assigned input to the Zone 2
or Record Zone audio output
connectors. The assigned analog audio
input is ignored. Zones can be indepen-
dently monitored.
Note the following:
Zone 2 and the Record Zone are
muted if the DIGITAL IN parameter is
set to HDMI AUDIO. In this case,
DMIX must be selected.
The SDP-40HD passes digital sources
to all Zone 2 or Record Zone audio
output connectors.
The SDP-40HD passes digital input
signals directly to the Record Zone
digital audio output connectors. The
SDP-40HD sends digital input signals
through D/A conversion before
passing them to the Zone 2 or Record
Zone analog audio output
connectors.
When no analog audio input is
assigned, ZONE2 IN and RECORD
IN are set to DIGITAL.
The INPUT SETUP menu DIGITAL
IN parameter can be used to assign
a digital audio input connector for
the selected input.
The SDP-40HD passes analog audio
from the assigned input to the Zone 2
or Record Zone audio output
connectors. The assigned digital audio
input is ignored. Zones can be indepen-
dently monitored.
Note the following:
The SDP-40HD passes analog
sources to all Zone 2 or Record
Zone audio output connectors.
The SDP-40HD passes analog input
signals directly to the Zone 2 or
Record Zone analog audio output
connectors. The SDP-40HD sends
analog input signals through A/D
conversion before passing them to
the Record Zone digital audio
output connectors.
When no digital audio input is
assigned, ZONE2 IN and
RECORD IN are set to ANALOG.
The INPUT SETUP menu
ANALOG IN parameter can be
used to assign an analog audio
input connector for the selected
input.
The SDP-40HD passes a downmixed version of Main Zone audio to
the Zone 2 or Record Zone audio output connectors. Zones cannot be
independently monitored. Downmixing is possible when all of the
following conditions are met:
The same input is selected in both Main Zone and Zone 2 or in
both Main Zone and Record Zone. Otherwise, the Zone 2 or
Record Zone audio output connectors will mute.
The 5.1mc BYPASS listening mode is not activated.
Note the following:
If the downmixed audio is coming from the HDMI input, and the
content is HDCP-encoded, the sample rate is limited to no more
than 48kHz.
If the audio from a copy-protected DVD-Audio disc is input
through HDMI, then no digital audio output is available.
A downmix of all channels is sent to Zone 2.
Main Zone listening mode activation affects the Zone 2 and
Record Zone audio output connectors. For example, when the
MONO listening mode is activated, the Zone 2 and Record Zone
audio output connectors will generate mono output signals.
Set the ZONE2 IN and RECORD IN parameters to DMIX when
using a playback device (DVD player) that does not have built-in
Dolby Digital or DTS(-ES) decoding, and the recording device is a
VCR or Personal Video Recorder (PVR).
The SDP-40HD automatically downmixes multi-channel sources
(except LOGIC 7 FILM and MUSIC sources) to stereo output
signals for listening and recording. Also, 5.1-channel analog
sources can be downmixed when the MAIN
ADVANCED ANALOG BYPASS parameter is set to OFF. Upon
playback, these downmixes are compatible with matrix decoders,
but sound best through a Logic 7 listening mode.
