Making an audio or a video recording

You can make an audio or a video recording from the built-in tuner, or from an audio or video source connected to the receiver (such as a CD player or TV).

Keep in mind you can’t make a digital recording from an analog source or vice- versa, so make sure the components you are recording to/from are hooked up in the same way (see Connecting up on page 14 for more on connections).

If you want to record a video source, you also need to use the same type of connection for the source as for the recorder. For example, you can’t record a component hooked up to S- video jacks with a recorder hooked up to the component video outputs (see page 18 for more on video connections).

1Select the source you want to record. Use the MULTI CONTROL buttons (or INPUT SELECT).

2Select the input signal (if necessary). Press SIGNAL SELECT (front panel) to select the input signal corresponding to the source component (see page 38 for more on this).

3Prepare the source you want to record. Tune to the radio station, load the CD, video, DVD etc.

4Prepare the recorder.

Insert a blank tape, MD, video etc. into the recording device and set the recording levels.

Refer to the instructions that came with the recorder if you are unsure how to do this. Most video recorders set the audio recording level automatically—check the component’s instruction manual if you’re unsure.

5Start recording, then start playback of the source component.

•The receiver's volume, balance, tone (bass, treble, loudness), and surround effects have no effect on the recorded signal.
