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.

VSX-D710S

1Turn the MULTI JOG dial to select a source to record (you can also use the MULTI CONTROL buttons if the DIRECT FUNCTION is on).

All functions except MONITOR are accessible from the remote control.

2Prepare the program source.

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 record- ers 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.

MEMO:

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

Record MONITOR

You can listen to (monitor) the recording as it's being made using the MONITOR button on 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-D710S has one optical digital output jack. The VSX-D810S/D850S has one coaxial digital output jack and one optical digital output jack. The quality of these two types of connections is the same so you only need to match the type of connection on this receiver with the type of connection on your component. If you want to make a digital recording from this receiver hook up the optical output on this receiver 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, and hooked up to this receiver in a digital manner. Make sure the analog/digital switch is set to digital (see p. 29) The recording procedure is the same as described above.

Refer to the table below for the type of digital connec- tions available in each receiver model.
