This Manual (as downloaded) is both informative and comprehensive and has proved to be extremely useful. thoroughly recommended.
;
everything is ok, thank you very much! Product is good, no problems with download!
;
Great site, I always find all the manuals I need and i can't find anywhere else. PDF for the Sony PCM 3348 is complete and scan is good quality. Thank you!
;
It was a complete manual as stated. Very good source for older product manuals. Thanks

Scan quality is very good. Price is very reasonable. If you're looking to purchase a copy of this manual, this is the one to get.
Sample Rate
The rate at which the ADC generates the numbers is equally important in determining the quality of a digital recording. To get a high level of accuracy when sampling, the sample rate must be greater than twice the frequency being sampled. The mathematical statement of this is called the Nyquist Theorem. When dealing with full-bandwidth sound (20Hz�20kHz), you should sample at greater than 40,000 times per second (twice 20kHz). Your Echo hardware allows you to sample at rates up to 96,000 times per second. If the sampling rate is lower than the frequency you are trying to record, entire cycles of the waveform will be missed, and the result will not resemble the proper waveform. When the sample rate is too low, the resulting sound has diminished high frequency content.
Figure C. Increased sample rates yield a more accurate reproduction of the source signal. By the way, the circuits that generate the sample rate must be exceedingly accurate. Any difference between the sample rate used for recording and the rate used at playback will change the pitch of the recording, just as with an analog tape playing at the wrong speed. Also, any unsteadiness, or jitter, in the sample clock will distort the signal as it is being converted from or to analog form.
