This section explains how to record the selected input

source to a component with recording capability, and how to record audio and video from different sources.

AV Recording

Audio sources can be recorded to a recorder (e.g., cassette

tape deck, CDR, MD recorder). Video sources can be

recorded to a video recorder (e.g., VCR, DVD recorder).

Use the input selector buttons to select the source

that you want to record.

You can watch the source while recording. The AV receiver's MASTER VOLUME control has no effect

on recording.

2 On your recorder, start recording.

3 On the source component, start playback.

If you select another input source during recording,

that input source will be recorded.

Recording Separate AV Sources

Here you can record audio and video from completely separate sources, allowing you to overdub audio onto your video recordings. This function takes advantage of the fact that when an audio-only input source (TV/CD) is selected, the video input source remains unchanged.

In the following example, audio from the CD player connected to the TV/CD IN and video from the camcorder

connected to the AUX INPUT VIDEO are recorded by the VCR connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.
