Recording
This chapter explains how to record the selected input source
to an AV component with recording capability, and how to
record audio and video from two different sources.
You can record only to AV components that are connected to
the TAPE OUT or VIDEO 1 OUT connectors.

Ise the following input selector
buttons to select the AV compo-
nent that you want to record.
Audio signals from the selected input
source are output by the VIDEO 1 OUT
and TAPE OUT connectors.
You can listen to the source while record-
ing. The TX-SR501/TX-SR501E's VOL-
UME control has no effect on recording.
With this function you can record audio and video from dif-
ferent sources, allowing you to overdub audio onto your
video recordings. This function takes advantage of the fact
that when an audio-only input source (i.e., TAPE, TUNER,
or CD) is selected, the video input source remains
unchanged. For example, if you first select the VIDEO 3
input source, followed by the CD input source, you can
watch the video from the VIDEO 3 input and listen to the
audio from the CD input.
In the following example, audio from the CD player con-
nected to the CD IN connectors, and video from the video
camera connected to the VIDEO 3 INPUT VIDEO connector
are recorded onto the VCR, which is connected to the
VIDEO 1 OUT connectors.
