Re: What does PCM stand for?

as far as I can tell/guess in this case PCM is actually referring to Sony PCM-1610/1630 digital audio systems which used 3/4" U-Matic cassettes as recording medium. Apparently old but pro-grade stuff.

Guess someone who has more knowledge on the history of audio recording devices and methods can shed some light here.
