Authors: Welland, Klaus; Redlich, Horst

Journal of the Audio Engineering Society · Volume 28 · Issue 7/8 · pp. 510–514 · August 1980

Abstract

As a contribution to the discussion on standardization, a digital audio disk is described in detail. It combines the advantages of modern digital techniques with the simplicity of further developments in conventional disk manufacturing techniques. The disk is contained, and remains during replay, in a protective cassette, which facilitates handling and is completely closed when not attached to the player.
