DAT tape audio is digitally transferred through the S/PDIF protocol, so it is a purely digital transfer. We transfer at the sample rate of the source tape (44.1KHz or 48KHz), and save it to uncompressed WAV format as a source file. We can then convert it to any compressed format you prefer for a release file.
