Notes

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

•The setting of TONE CONTROL, VOLUME, “SP LEVEL” (page 51) and the sound field programs does not affect recorded material.

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

•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 to your VCR.

•Digital signals input to the DIGITAL INPUT jacks are not output to the analog AUDIO OUT (L/R) jacks for recording. Likewise, analog signals input to the AUDIO IN (L/R) jacks are not output to the DIGITAL OUTPUT jack. Therefore, if your source component is connnected to provide only digital (or analog) signals, you can only record digital (or analog) signals.

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

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

If you playback a video source that uses scrambled or encoded signals to prevent it from being dubbed, the picture itself may be disturbed due to those signals.

■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 DVDs and CDs encoded with DTS, when your player is compatible with the DTS format, follow its operating instructions to make a setting so that the analog signal will be output from the player.
