Using Other Functions

Recording from Audio Components

The following explanations show you how to record an analog or digital audio signal. Note that your analog
components cannot record a player that is only connected digitally (and vice-versa). If you want to record from a
digital component to an analog one (for example, a tape deck), or vice-versa, the digital component it MUST be
connected via analog jacks and you need to set the SIGNAL SELECT switch to ANALOG. To make exact digital
copies (of digital sources like CDs) both the source component and the recorder must be connected with digital
connections. See p.8 for more on analog audio connections and p.10, 11 for digital audio connections.
The amplifier's volume, channel level, balance, tone (BASS, TREBLE, and LOUDNESS), and surround
effects have no effect on the recorded signal and the EXTERNAL DECODER input cannot be recorded.
In some cases, digital recordings have copy guard protections and making a digital copy is not possible.
In this case you can only copy them in an analog manner.

Recording from Video Components

The following operations show you how to record audio and video to the video tape recorder connected to the
VCR 1/DVR or VCR 2 jacks. Note that all signals coming out of these jacks will be analog and it is not possible to
record Dolby Digital/DTS soundtracks.
The amplifier's volume, channel level, balance, tone (BASS, TREBLE, and LOUDNESS), and surround
effects have no effect on the recorded signal.

Record monitor (TAPE 2 MONITOR)
If you connect a cassette deck with a record monitor
function to the TAPE 2 MONITOR jacks, you can listen to
the sound of an analog recording as it is being recorded.
Press TAPE 2 MONITOR to switch between the sound of
the recording (TAPE 2 indicator on) and the sound of the
source component (TAPE 2 indicator off).

First, decide the component you'd like to
record and put the receiver in that function.
Set the SIGNAL SELECT to analog.
Press the SIGNAL SELECT button on the remote
control (or use the button on the front panel) and
choose analog. Recording DIGITAL or AC-3 RF signals
is not possible.
