I suspect that this is a question for the Yamaha
engineers. I have a DCD1 that I use with a GranTouch. I had the DCD1
modified to add a digital output, which is connected to my stereo system.
When I use Smart Pianosoft discs (which are "DCD1 Compatible"), I have two
problems. First, each track starts and stops twice after a few seconds,
and then on the third try, plays all the way through the song. Second,
once a track does start to play, the piano parts on the
floppy disc are not exactly synchronized with the CD. The piano
parts always play a split second ahead of the CD.
I am wondering what the cause of these problems
would be and if there is any way to correct them. In particular, is there
a way to delay the piano parts in order to synchronize them exactly with the
CD?
The analog output on the DCD1 synchronizes
perfectly. However, the sound quality of the CD's is much better
through the digital output, so it would be a shame not to be able to use
it.
Thanks.
