What happens with SCMS if you take the digital out from a DAT deck that cannot defeat it and go into a bit bucket like my R-44.

I am pretty sure most modern gear ignores SCMS

That is what I was thinking too I just haven't tried to take a digital signal out of a SCMS DAT deck to my R-44 yet. It does not seem logical that you would not be able to make copies of a .wav file.

From Page 6 of the R44 Manual:
When exchanging audio signals through a digitalconnection with an external instrument, this unit can perform recording without being subjected to some of the restrictions of the Serial Copy Management System(SCMS). This is because the unit is intended solely for musical production, and is designed not to be subject to restrictions as long as it is used to record works (such as your own compositions) that do not infringe on the copyrights of others. (SCMS is a feature that prohibits second-generation and later copying through a digital connection. It is built into MD recorders and other consumer digital-audio equipment as a copyright-protection feature.)

I tested this recently, from my consumer-grade Sony DAT deck to the R-44, and made a second-generation digital copy of a retail CD, so no problem :).

Thanks guys. Topic locked.

Oops! Looks like I was in too much of a hurry... The instructions I posted are for the R-4, not the R-44... Sorry!
I'm not sure if the same applies to the R-44...
