Making a Recording

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, or from an audio or video source connected to the receiver (such as a CD player or TV). Recordings can be made to a CD- Recorder, cassette deck, MD, VCR, or DVR deck connected to the CD-R/TAPE/MD, VCR or DVR in/out connectors.

memo	The receiver's volume, balance tone (bass, treble, loudness), and surround effects have no
	effect on the recorded signal.

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

3Insert a blank tape, MD, video etc. into the recording device connected to either CD-R/ MD/TAPE or VCR/DVR 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.

Operation

Record MONITOR

You can listen to (monitor) the recording as it's being made using the MONITOR button on the the front panel (a cassette deck would have to have a record monitor function).

Press the MONITOR button to switch between the recorded signal and the original source signal.

Making a digital recording

The VSX-D509S has one digital output jack. If you want to make a digital recording from this receiver hook up this optical output to the optical input on the digital component you want to record into. The source component (like MD,CD, DVD, etc) must be digital also, of course. Make sure the analog/digital switch is set to digital (see p. 37) The recording procedure is the same as described above.
