Recording from Audio Components

The following explanations show you how to record an analog audio signal with the component you connected to the MD/TAPE 1 or TAPE 2 MONITOR jacks. Note that you cannot record an component that is only connected digitally. If you want to record from a digital component it must be connected in an analog manner as well. If you want to record a digital signal see the next page.

The receiver’s volume, channel level, tone (BASS, TREBLE, and LOUDNESS), and surround effects have no effect on the recorded signal and the EXTERNAL DECODER input cannot be recorded.
