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.
The receiver's volume, balance tone (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 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.
1 Press the FUNCTION button 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.
On the receiver, select the source directly using the front panel
buttons.
2 Prepare the program source.
Tune to the radio station, load the CD, etc. For a video recording
load the video, DVD etc.
3 Insert 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.
4 Start recording, then start playback of the
source component.

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.
