Onkyo TX-SR576, TX-SR506 Recording the Input Source, Recording from Different AV Sources

Recording

This section explains how to record the input source and how to record audio and video from separate sources.

Notes:

•The surround sound and DSP listening modes cannot be recorded.

•Copy-protected DVDs cannot be recorded.

•Sources connected to the analog multichannel input cannot be recorded.

•Sources connected to a digital input cannot be recorded. Only analog inputs can be recorded.

•DTS signals will be recorded as noise, so don’t attempt analog recording of DTS CDs or LDs.

•While the Pure Audio listening mode is selected, the VCR/DVR OUT V and S jacks don’t output video sig- nals, so select another mode when recording.

Recording the Input Source

Audio sources can be recorded to a recorder (e.g., cas- sette deck, CDR, MD) connected to the TAPE OUT jack. Video sources can be recorded to a video recorder (e.g., VCR, DVR) connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks. See pages 20 to 34 for hookup information.

Recording from Different AV Sources

You can overdub audio onto your video recordings by simultaneously recording audio and video from two sep- arate sources. This is possible because only the audio source is switched when an audio-only input source, such as TAPE, TUNER, or CD, is selected, the video source remains the same.

In the following example, audio from the CD player con- nected to the CD IN and video from the camcorder con- nected to the AUX INPUT VIDEO jack are recorded by the VCR connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.
