Cassette Deck/VCR Features

You can connect two cassette decks to the receiver. Selecting either

orlets you hear the playback from the cassette deck you con- nected to the receiver’s corresponding (VCR/TAPE 1or TAPE 2 MONITOR) jacks.

Using the VCR/TAPE 1 and TAPE 2 MONITOR Buttons

Press VCR/TAPE 1. VCR appears on the display. You hear the playback from the cassette deck or VCR you connected to the receiver’s VCR/TAPE 1 IN jacks.

Press TAPE 2 MONITOR. TAPE 2 appears on the display along with the last pro- gram source you selected. You can hear playback or monitor a recording from the cassette deck you connected to the receiver’s TAPE 2 MONITOR jacks. The

jacks continue to output sound from the previously selected source after you press TAPE 2 MONITOR.

To return to the previous source, press TAPE 2 MONITOR again so TAPE 2 disap- pears.

The receiver sends the audio of the program source you select— VCR/TAPE 1, DVD/LD, CD, FM/AM (tuner), or PHONO — to the VCR/TAPE 1 OUT/REC (audio) and TAPE 2 MONITOR OUT/REC jacks. If you select VCR/TAPE 1 or DVD/LD, the video pro-

VIDEO OUT TO MONITOR TV jack.

The VOLUME control does not affect the level of the signal going to the tape decks.

Dubbing a Cassette Tape

You can copy (dub) a cassette tape from one cassette deck to another through the STAV-3770.

You can use either deck as the playback or recording deck. However, if you want to monitor the cassette deck during dubbing, use the deck connected to

thejacks as the source, and the deck you connected to the

REC jacks as the recording deck. Then press TAPE 2 MONITOR so TAPE 2 and the last program source you selected appear on the display. See “Using the VCR/ TAPE 1 and TAPE 2 MONITOR Buttons.”

The VOLUME control does not affect the level of the signal going to the tape decks.
