In Reply to: Re: Is it now possible to "burn" our own SACD's? posted by HighEndWire on April 8, 2007 at 16:14:57:
The Tascam DVR1000 is not an SACD recorder. It is a DSD (or PCM) recorder that writes the soundfiles to a DVD+RW. The discs can be played in the Tascam machine, or transferred to a DSD workstation.SACD has always been, and presumably always will be a heavily encrypted and copy-protected format. So, no SACD-Rs (unfortunately, I think).
Follow Ups:
Using Philips SuperAuthor, I've been able to use an Authoring DVD-R drive to burn the resulting *.DAT file in UDF to a disc that seems to play on about 40% of the players.Now, I don't know if this is a fault where some players (I don't want to mention which explicitly) don't validate the pit signal processing (I'm not even sure if this is used on most pressings?) or what...
Nonetheless, I've got a few samples if anyone does want to play around with the discs. (Test material only on the discs.)
Granted, most will reject the disc. So I'm not sure if this is simply a firmware 'fault' or perhaps the order of operations that goes into identifying a SACD on some players.
I'm interested. If you can upload an ISO image to the internet, I can download and burn to a DVD.
Use the email link, I dont want to do this for the public at large; but I can get you an ISO.

Or you could send me the link via Audio Asylum. I accept emails from registered users.
Thanks.
Try now.
...of what UDF means.Is the result - on the 40% of machines that do play it - showing as a SACD disk - or as a RBCD?
If they do show up as SACD, then could you also do it with a DSD disc out of a Tascam R1000?
No, not Digital Audio Tape -- *.DAT (data) is effectively an image file created by Philips SuperAuthor. Usually it's exported to AIT-2 tape and sent to an SACD pressing facility. (Compare to a *.DMG, *.ISO or *.IMG file)I've successfully done this with my DVRA-1000 using DSDIFF files; The result is SACD playback, not RBCD. The player identifies it as an SACD, and the files imported into SuperAuthor are 100% DSD DSDIFF files produced by the RA-1000.
UDF (Universal Disc Format)is a filesystem format (as compared to ISO9660 for CD/DVD; UDF 1.02, etc) - UDF is what SACD uses; (UDF 2.5 is also used for Blu-Ray.)
