Using the TAPE-2 MONITOR function

Playing equipment connected to the TAPE-2 jacks

Playing equipment connected to the TAPE-2 jacks does not differ from playing equipment connected in other ways. See "Input source selection and surround setup" on page 25.

How does the TAPE-2 MONITOR button differ from other source selector buttons?

In addition to selecting the TAPE-2 source, the TAPE-2 MONITOR button has a special feature for recording with a 3-head cassette tape deck. Press the TAPE MONITOR button and the TAPE-2 MONITOR function is activated and the TAPE-2 MONITOR indicator appears. In this mode, sound from sources other than the TAPE-2 source cannot be heard from the speakers even if selected. To deactivate the TAPE-2 MONITOR function, press the TAPE-2 MONITOR button again.
