Recording - Onkyo TX-DS595 Instruction Manual

Recording

The TX-DS595 can also be used to record an input source media.
This allows you to make copies of the music or videos you like, copy
them from one type of media to another, or even record what is being
broadcast on television or radio.

Tip:
If you want to record the video from one source and the audio from
another source together, such as recording the video from a video
camera connected to VIDEO 2 and the audio from a CD player
connected to CD, in step 2 above, select the source for the video and
then select the source for the audio. The remaining procedure is the
same as that above.
Notes:
• If you change the input source during recording, you will record
the signals from the newly selected input source.
• You cannot record the surround effects.
• You cannot perform digital recording with the TX-DS595. Also,
digital-to-analog signal conversion is not possible, so to record
audio signals from digital sources (e.g. CD players), you must
not only make the digital connection, but the analog connection
as well.
• You cannot record the source connected to the MULTI
CHANNEL INPUT connector.
