Recording an External Digital Source

Recording an external digital source — a DAT or MD player, or digital satellite
receiver, for example—via the optical digital input of the MJ–L77 follows much the
same procedure as recording from an analogue source. You’ll need to make sure that
your auxiliary component is connected to both the CD receiver via an analogue
connection (so that you can hear what you’re recording), and to the MD recorder via
an optical digital cable (so that the recording is digital). To do this, unplug the optical
cable from the back of the CD receiver and plug it into the optical digital output on
the external component.
