Recording a Source

You can record any source playing through the receiver to a cassette deck (or an MD recorder) connected to the TAPE/MD jacks and the VCRs connected to the VCR 1 and VCR 2 jacks at the same time.

While recording, you can adjust the volume level, without affecting the sound levels of the recording.

IMPORTANT:

Before recording a digital source, turn off the DSP mode (see page 20).

While recording a digital source, do not change the SEA mode (see page 19) or DSP mode (see page 20); otherwise, recording will be interrupted.

Note:

The SEA modes and DSP modes cannot affect the recording while recording an analog source.
