To change the source name to “TAPE” or “TV,” repeat the same procedure above—press and hold TAPE/MD to select “TAPE,” or press and hold TV/DBS to select “TV” in step 2.

While selecting “DBS” as the Zone 2 source, you cannot change the source name to “TV.”

Notes:

Once you change the source name, it is applied both for the Zone 1 and Zone 2 sources.

Without changing the source name, you can still use the connected components. However, there may be some inconvenience:

“TAPE” or “TV” will appear on the display when you select the MD recorder or DBS tuner.

You cannot use the digital input (see page 25) for the MD recorder.

You cannot use the COMPU LINK or TEXT COMPU LINK remote control system (see pages 61 and 63) to operate the MD recorder.

Recording a SourceFor analog-to-analog recordingYou can record any analog source through the receiver to—the cassette deck (or MD recorder) connected to the TAPE/ MD OUT jacks,the VCRs connected to the VCR 1 OUT and VCR 2 OUT jacks, andthe CD recorder connected to the CDR OUT jacksat the same time.For digital-to-digital recording

You can record the currently selected digital input source through the receiver to a digital recording device connected to the DIGITAL OUT terminal.

Notes:

Analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog recordings are not possible.No sound adjustments can affect the recording.

IMPORTANT:

While recording, do not turn off the receiver or Zone 1 source; otherwise, recording will stop.

If the same source is selected both for Zone 1 andZone 2, operating the Zone 2 source will affect the recording.Basic adjustment auto memoryThis receiver memorizes sound settings for each Zone 1 source—when you turn on the power,when you change the source, andwhen you turn on One Touch Operation (see page 44).

When you change the Zone 1 source, the memorized settings for the newly selected source are automatically recalled.

The following can be stored for each source:Analog/digital input mode (see page 25)Input Attenuator mode (see page 26)Analog Direct (see page 27)Parametric Equalizer setting (see page 48)Midnight mode (see page 49)Surround/THX mode (see page 51)DSP mode (see page 58)

Notes:

If the source is FM or AM, you can assign a different setting for each band.The memorized settings are not applied when a source is selected for Zone 2.

If you want to memorize the volume level together with the above settings, set One Touch Operation to “ON” (see page 44).
