Recording a source

To record an input source signal different from
that you are currently watching or listening to

This method outputs to the audio and video outputs the signal from
the input source that you select here. This allows you to record an
input source signal different from that which you are listening to or
watching at the time of recording.

1. Press the Rec Out button.

2. Within 3 seconds, press the input source

selector button of the input source signal that
you wish to record.

The signal from the selected input source will now be output to
the TAPE OUT, VIDEO 1 OUT, and VIDEO 2 OUT outputs

Recording the video from one source and the
audio from another

You can add the sound from one source to the video of another
source to make your own video recordings.

Below is an example of recording the sound from a compact disc
player connected to CD IN and the video from a video camera
connected to VIDEO 4 IN to video cassette tape in a video cassette
recorder connected to the VIDEO 1 OUT jack.

1. Press the CD input source button.

2. Set “VIDEO 4” for the Video setting in the

3. Insert a CD in the CD player and insert a tape

in the video camera connected to the VIDEO 4
IN.

4. Insert a video tape for recording in the video

cassette recorder connected to VIDEO 1 OUT.

5. Press the REC OUT button repeatedly until

“Rec Sel:SOURCE” appears in the front
display.

Now “CD” has been selected as the audio input source and
“VIDEO 4” as the video input source.

6. Start recording on the video cassette recorder

and start playing at the CD player and video
camera as desired.

Notes:

• If you change the input source during recording, you will

record the audio signals from the newly selected input source
and the video signals assigned to that input source.

• You cannot record the surround effects.

3. Start recording at the recording component as

desired.

To confirm the settings, press the Rec Out button. The current
settings will appear for 3 seconds in the front display.

Notes:

• Be aware that the remote (Zone 2) and recording (Rec Out)

outputs use the same circuit and therefore can be used at the
same time.

• You cannot record the surround effects.

• Digital signals input to the DIGITAL INPUT (COAXIAL) and

DIGITAL INPUT (OPTICAL) inputs will be output to the
DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPTICAL) outputs.

• There are some restrictions on recording digital signals. When

making digital recordings, consult the instruction manual that
came with your digital recording equipment (e.g., MD
recorder or DAT deck) to know what restrictions are imposed.

• You cannot record the source connected to the MULTI
