Recording

Recording to a Tape Player
Input signals from an audio source playing in
the TGR-3 can be re cord ed using the left and
right audio outputs. The tape player will receive
a straight copy of the analog source signal going
in, un af fect ed by the volume, tone or any sur-
round modes. If you are playing a digital source,
the tape player will receive a downmixed stereo
analog signal for recording.
• Turn OFF the Fully Automatic mode.
This is because some tape decks, such
as three-head decks, will have an output
signal going into the TGR-3 during
recording. The DAT or TAPE inputs may
be in cor rect ly se lect ed as an input, rather
than the source you are trying to record.
• Manually select the source such as CD
and play it through your system.
• Set your tape player to record and adjust
the input levels for the best per for mance.
Once the levels are correct, you can reset
your source to the beginning and make
your re cord ing.
• Do not select another Main Zone input
while you are recording.
Recording to a VCR
Any video source playing in the TGR-3 can be
re cord ed using the left and right audio and the
video outputs. The VCR will receive a straight
copy of the source signal going in, unaffected by
the volume, tone or any surround modes.
• Select the video source and play it
through your system.
• Set your VCR to record.
• Do not select another Main Zone source
while you are recording.
• The VID2/MON2 output can also be used
for recording, but fi rst make sure that it
is set to VID2 in the VIDEO menu of the
OSD (see page 37). This output will then
mute to prevent feedback whenever the
VID2 input source is selected.
• Do not use the OSD while recording as
the incoming video is shut off while the
OSD is displayed
