Recording

Before you begin, make sure you have
connected all components properly.
Recording on an audio tape or
MiniDisc
You can record on a MiniDisc or cassette tape
using the receiver. See the operating instructions
of your cassette deck or MD deck if you need
help.
1
Select the component to be recorded.
2
Prepare the component for playing.
For example, insert a CD into the CD
player.
3
Insert a blank tape or MD into the
recording deck and adjust the
recording level, if necessary.
4
Start recording on the recording deck,
then start playback on the playback
component.
Tip
When you want to record the source selected for the
2nd zone, set "REC OUT" in the CUSTOMIZE menu
to "2ND SOURCE" (page 42). You can select the
analog audio signals only.
Notes
• You cannot record a digital audio signal using a
component connected to the analog TAPE OUT or
MD/DAT OUT jacks. To record a digital audio
signal, connect a digital component to the MD/DAT
OPTICAL OUT jacks.
• Sound adjustments do not affect the signal output
from the TAPE OUT or MD/DAT OUT jacks.
• The signals input to the MULTI CHANNEL INPUT
jacks are not output from the TAPE OUT or MD/
DAT OUT jacks even when MULTI CH IN is being
used. The analog audio signals of the current or
previously used input are output.
Recording on a video tape
You can record from a VCR, a TV, or an LD
player using the receiver. You can also add
audio from a variety of audio sources when
editing a video tape. See the operating
instructions of your VCR if you need help.

Insert a blank video tape into the VCR
(VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2 or VIDEO 3) for

Tips
• When you want to record the source selected for the
2nd zone, set "REC OUT" in the CUSTOMIZE
menu to "2ND SOURCE" (page 42). You can select
the analog audio signals only.
• You can record the sound from any audio source onto
a video tape while copying from a video tape or laser
disc. Locate the point where you want to start
recording from another audio source, select the
program source, then start playback. The audio from
that source will be recorded onto the audio track of
the video tape instead of the audio from the original
medium. To resume audio recording from the
original medium, select the video source again.
Notes
• The analog audio signals of the current input are
output from the VIDEO 1 OUT, VIDEO 2 OUT, or
VIDEO 3 OUT jacks.
• You cannot record a digital audio signal using a
component connected to the analog VIDEO 1 OUT,
VIDEO 2 OUT or VIDEO 3 OUT jacks. To record a
digital audio signal, connect a digital component to
the VIDEO 1 OPTICAL OUT jack. Note that only
the digitally input signal is output from the VIDEO 1
OPTICAL OUT jack.
• Make sure to make both digital and analog
connections to the TV/SAT or DVD inputs. Analog
recording is not possible if you make only digital
connections.
• Some sources contain copy guards to prevent
recording. In this case, you may not be able to record
from the sources.
• The signals input to the MULTI CHANNEL IN jacks
are not output from VIDEO 1 OUT, VIDEO 2 OUT,
or VIDEO 3 OUT jacks even when MULTI CH IN is
being used. The analog audio signals of the current or
previously used input are output.
