DAT Backup/Restore
Please Note the Following!
USE ONLY DDS DATA-GRADE 60 METER LENGTH (2 HOUR) DAT TARES. These are
available at most computer stores. Don’t assume your audio-grade tapes will do the job just as
well. They won’t! The ASR-10 tells you how many tapes will be needed for a multiple tape
backup based on 60 meter length tapes. Remember to always label your tapes to avoid mix-ups
(see sample labels on the following page).
USE ONLY RCA-TYPE VIDEO DUB CABLES. This will help ensure the integrity of your data.
Another good idea is to use the shortest possible length cables between your ASR-10 and DAT
machine. This will reduce signal loss.
MAKE MORE THAN ONE SAFETY BACKUP of the same SCSI Storage Device. Your backups
are crucial to saving hours of work. Don’t let a catastrophe find you unprepared!
CHECK YOUR DAT MACHINE to be sure that the DI-10 Digital I/O Interface will operate
properly. Your DAT recorder must be able to record from its digital input at 44.1 KHz.
DISCONNECT ANALOG OUTS AND HEADPHONES!
