Recording

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.

Notes:

•The surround sound and DSP listening modes cannot be recorded.

•Copy-protected DVDs cannot be recorded.

•You cannot record from the DVD analog multichannel input.

•Sources connected to a digital input cannot be recorded. Only analog inputs can be recorded.

•DTS signals will be recorded as noise, so don’t attempt analog recording of DTS CDs or LDs.

•While the listening mode is set to Pure Audio, no image is provided because the power is turned off for the video circuit. If you want to make recordings, select other listening mode.

AV Recording

Audio sources can be recorded to a recorder (e.g., cas- sette deck, CDR, MD) connected to the TAPE OUT jack. Video sources can be recorded to a video recorder (e.g., VCR, DVD recorder) connected to the to VCR/DVR OUT jack. See pages 23 to 39 for hookup information.

1

Use the input selector buttons to

 

 

select the source that you want

 

to record.

You can watch the source while record- ing. The AV receiver/AV amplifier’s MASTER VOLUME control has no effect on recording.

2

On your recorder, start record-

 

 

ing.

 

 

3

On the source component, start

 

 

playback.

 

If you select another input source dur-

 

ing 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 (i.e., TAPE, TUNER, CD or PHONO) is selected, the video input source remains unchanged.

In the following example, audio from the CD player con- nected to the CD IN, and video from the camcorder con- nected to the AUX INPUT VIDEO jack are recorded by the VCR connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.

3

This selects the CD player as the audio source, but

 

leaves the camcorder as the video source.

Start recording on the VCR and start play-

 

back on the camcorder and CD player.

The video from the camcorder and the audio from the CD player are recorded by the VCR.
