Call me stupid - but when late last night I was testing whether the R-44 does bit-perfect digital input, and it was coming out not at all right, I had the MS effect on...From which first of all we can see that effects will affect the digital input, which is worth knowing.Second, the digital level controls do not affect the digital input, which is also worth knowing (and of course that's the way it should be).Third - and most important - when I record one minute from a CD into the R-44 via spdif, then rip that CD into my DAW and invert it against the R-44, I get silence - the spdif recording is bit-accurate.For proof here's the readout from Audition for the mixdown of the two files, one inverted against the other - Left RightMin Sample Value: 0 0Max Sample Value: 0 0Peak Amplitude: -inf dB -inf dBPossibly Clipped: 0 0DC Offset: 0 0 Minimum RMS Power: -inf dB -inf dBMaximum RMS Power: -inf dB -inf dBAverage RMS Power: -inf dB -inf dBTotal RMS Power: -inf dB -inf dBActual Bit Depth: floatUsing RMS Window of 50 msEureka! Sorry for the scare last night. Never do stuff late.
