To record the current input source that you are watching or listening to, set REC OUT/ZONE 2 to SOURCE/REMOTE. To record the other source than the one that you are watching or listening to, set REC OUT/ZONE 2 to the source you want to record.

3 Start playback (or select a broadcast station) on the source component.

4 Start recording on the recording component.

Notes

•Do a test recording before you start an actual recording.

•It is not possible to record the sound effect created by this unit’s DSP processing.

•When this unit is set in the standby mode, you cannot record between other components connected to this unit.

•Operating BASS and TREBLE, BASS EXTENSION, BAL- ANCE, VOLUME, and DSP programs do not affect the recorded signal.

•Setting REC OUT/ZONE 2 to SOURCE/REMOTE and using the BGV function (see page 43) allows the recording of audio and video from a different source.

•Use INPUT SELECTOR to switch the source from the one you are watching or listening to while making recordings with REC OUT/ZONE 2 set to the source component you are recording from.

Cautions

•A given input source is not output on the same REC OUT channel. (For example, the signal input from VCR 1 IN is not output on VCR 1 OUT.)

•S-video and composite video signals pass independently through this unit’s video circuits. Therefore, when recording or dubbing video signals, if your video source component is connected to provide only an S-video (or only a composite video) signal, you can record only an S-video (or only a composite video) signal by your VCR.

•DIGITAL OUTPUT jacks and analog OUT (REC) jacks are independent. Only digital signals are output from DIGITAL OUTPUT jacks and analog signals from OUT (REC) jacks.

•A source connected to the 6CH INPUT jacks of this unit cannot be recorded.

•The LD qRF (AC-3)input signal cannot be output using REC OUT/ZONE 2.

•Check the copyright laws in your country to record from records, CDs, radio, etc. Recording of copyrighted material may infringe copyright laws.

■Special considerations when recording DTS

software

The DTS signal is a digital bitstream. Attempting to digitally record the DTS bitstream will result in noise being recorded. Therefore, if you want to use this unit to record sources that have DTS signals recorded on them, the following considerations and adjustments need to be made. For LDs, DVDs and CDs encoded with DTS, when your player is compatible with the DTS format, follow its operation instruction to make a setting so that the analog signal will be output from the player.
