Chapter 9:

Making recordings

Making an audio or a video

recording

You can make an audio or a video recording

from the built-in tuner, or from an audio or

video source connected to the receiver (such

as a CD player or TV).

Keep in mind you can’t make a digital

recording from an analog source or vice-versa,

so make sure the components you are

recording to/from are hooked up in the same

way (see Connecting up on page 12 for more on

connections).

If you want to record a video source, you also

need to use the same type of connection for the

source as for the recorder. For example, you

can’t record a component hooked up to S-video

jacks with a recorder hooked up to the

composite video outputs (see page 16 for more

on video connections).

1 Select the source you want to record.

Use the MULTI CONTROL buttons (or INPUT

SELECT).

2 Select the input signal (if necessary).

Press SIGNAL SEL to select the input signal

corresponding to the source component (see

page 33 for more on this).

3 Prepare the source you want to record.

Tune to the radio station, load the CD, video,

DVD etc.

4 Prepare the recorder.

Insert a blank tape, MD, video etc. into the

recording device 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 the component’s

instruction manual if you’re unsure.

5Start recording, then start playback of the

source component.
