4.3 MANUALLY COPYING THE MAIN PATH TO ZONE2, ZONE3, OR RECORD
When Main is copied to another path, the source selected in MAIN is directed to the other path.
If a source component’s audio is connected to the processor using digital connection only, the Copy
function is the only way to deliver the sound to another path.
Front Panel
Press MAIN simultaneously with ZONE2, ZONE3, or REC. Use MAIN to select the source.
Remote Control
Make sure the appropriate control mode is set, or REC path is selected, then press COPY.
When MAIN is copied, the display for the other paths reads “–MAIN–> ZONE2” (or ZONE3 or REC), along
with the information normally displayed. Copy can also be set permanently in the source setup menu.
Downmixing to 2-Channel:
The center, surround, and rear channels can be mixed into the left and right channels for the processor’s
non-MAIN outputs. This can be done by the source or the processor:
• Processor downmix: The processor downmixes multichannel sources into 2.0 when you copy
MAIN to another path. This does not apply to HDMI inputs. REC output is PCM.
• Source downmix: If the source’s left/right analog outputs are connected to the processor, the
source’s downmix can be used for ZONE2, ZONE3, TAPE, and VCR outputs without having to copy
MAIN. Note that DVD players may not downmix DTS material.
4.4 SOURCE SELECTION
After making sure that you are in the appropriate path (front panel) or appropriate control mode is set
(remote control), select a source.
6-Channel Analog Audio Input:
The 6-Ch audio can be routed to ZONE2, ZONE3, and RECORD outputs as long as Copy mode, which creates
the stereo down-mix, is used.
Source Seek (remote control only):
The SOURCE SEEK
7 8 keys detect the previous/next active source, while
the 4 key advances one source at a time.
