8 Making Recordings

Making an audio or a video recording

The following steps show you how to make an audio or a video recording from the built in tuner, DVD, CD or from an audio or video source connected to the system (CD player, satellite tuner, etc.). Recordings can be made to a recorder connected to the AUDIO 1 or VIDEO 1 inputs/outputs.

The system's volume, balance, bass, treble, Midnight and surround sound settings have no effect on the recording.

Notes

•You can't record a source connected to the digital inputs from the analog outputs.

•You can't record DTS encoded discs from the analog outputs.

1 Select a source to record.

Use the MULTI CONTROL buttons on the remote, or the FUNCTION button (remote or front panel) to select the source.

2Prepare the program source.

Tune to the radio station, load the CD, etc. For a video recording load the video, etc.

3Insert a blank tape, MD, etc. into the recorder connected to either AUDIO 1 or VIDEO 1 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 your video's instruction manual if you are unsure whether yours has manual controls.

4Start recording, then start playback of the source component.

Making a digital recording

The system has one optical digital audio output (for AUDIO 1). If you want to make a digital recording from this system hook up this optical output to the optical input of your digital recorder. The source (CD, DVD, etc.) must be digital also; this system doesn’t convert analog inputs to digital. If you’re recording from an external digital component, also make sure that you’ve selected the digital input for that component (see page 19).

Note: If you want to record DVD disc, check that the digital output settings correct. See page 36 for detailed instructions.

1Select DVD or VIDEO V-2 as the digital source to record.

Use the MULTI CONTROL buttons on the remote, or the FUNCTION button (remote or front panel) to select the source.

2Prepare the program source.

Load the CD, MD, etc.

3Insert a blank MD, CD-R, etc. into the recorder connected to the optical output of AUDIO 1.

4Start recording, then start playback of the source component.

See the instructions that came with your recorder for detailed instructions on recording.
