Operations
This chapter describes the operation
necessary to record the output of the
components connected to this unit on
your DAT deck, MD deck, or tape
deck (etc.).

Recording

Your preamplifier makes it easy to record to and from the
components connected to it. You don't have to connect
the playback and recording components directly to each
other: once you select a program source on the
preamplifier, you can record and edit as you normally
would using the controls on each component.
Before you begin, make sure you've connected all
components properly.
Recording on an audio tape or MiniDisc
You can record on a cassette tape or MiniDisc using the
preamplifier. See the instruction manual of your tape deck
or MD deck if you need help.
1
Turn INPUT SELECTOR to select the component to
be recorded.
For example, select CD.
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.
z You can check what is being recorded (tape monitor)
When using a 3-head tape deck, it is possible to check the signal
that is actually being recorded. For example, if the tape deck
connected to the DAT/TAPE 1 input jacks is being used to make
a recording, press TAPE MONITOR to turn the tape monitor on
(the indicator lights) and then TAPE 1/TAPE 2 until the indicator
above TAPE 1 lights.
Notes
• You cannot record a digital audio signal using a component
connected to the analog TAPE 1/DAT OUT jacks or TAPE 2/
MD OUT jacks. To record a digital audio signal, connect the
digital output of the source component directly to the digital
input of the recording deck.
• Sound adjustments do not affect the signal output from the
TAPE1/DAT OUT or TAPE 2/MD OUT jacks.
