RECORDING

This example explains how to record from an input source such as an Super Audio CD player to a recording device such as a CD-R.

1.Press the power ON/OFF switch of the Super Audio CD player and CD-R to activate power to both components.

2.Press the POWER ON/OFF switch q of the PM-15S1 to activate power to it. Approximately 8 seconds after power has been activated, the muting turns OFF and audio output is enabled. When using multiple PM-15S1s connected by FCBS, turn power ON in the order of lowest to highest ID number, starting from ID 1.

3.Select the input source from the INPUT SELECTOR knob e on the PM-15S1 or the input selector buttons z of the remote controller. And, press the REC OUT button !2to turn the recording output of RECORDER 1 and 2 ON.

4.Load a playback disc into the Super Audio CD player and a recording disc into the CD-R.

5.Start playback on the Super Audio CD player. Then, start recording on the CD-R.

6.To use the speakers connected to the SPEAKER SYSTEMS terminals, press the SPEAKERS button !0on the PM-15S1.

7.Adjust the volume level from the VOLUME knob r on the PM-15S1 or the VOLUME 3/4 buttons n of the remote controller.
