Making an audio or a video recording
You can 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).
1
Keep in mind you can't make a digital recording from an
analog source or vice-versa, so make sure the
components you are recording to/from are hooked up in
the same way (see
Connecting your equipment on
page 10 for more on connections).
Since the video converter is not available when making
recordings (from the video
OUT jacks) make sure to use
the same type of video cable for connecting your recorder
as you used to connect your video source (the one you
want to record) to this receiver. For example, you must
connect your recorder using S-video if your source has
also been connected using S-video.
For more information about video connections, see
Connecting a DVD/HDD recorder, VCR and other video
sources
on page 13.
1 Select the source you want to record.
Use the input source buttons (or INPUT SELECT ).
• If necessary, press SIGNAL SELECT to select the
input signal corresponding to the source component
(see
Choosing the input signal on page 31 for more
on this).
2 Prepare the source you want to record.
Tune to the radio station, load the CD, video, DVD etc.
3 Prepare the recorder.
Insert a blank tape, MD, video etc. into the recording
device 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 the
component's instruction manual if you're unsure.
4 Start recording, then start playback of the source
component.

a. Only when listening to 2-channel sources in Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music /
Dolby Pro Logic II Music mode.
b.Only when listening to 2-channel sources in Neo:6 Music mode.
c. You shouldn't have any problems using this with most SACD discs, but
if the sound distorts, it is best to switch the gain setting back to
0 dB
( VSX-AX2AS only – The feature is intended for use with future improvements
with the HDMI interface).
d.When
THROUGH is selected, the Resolution is automatically set to
PURE (regardless of the setting).
e. There are cases where (depending on the resolution of the video signal
and your monitor) you may not be able to see a picture after selecting a
resolution setting. If this happens, select a different resolution setting.
Also, depending on the source component or the monitor you are using
the output resolution may be different from the setting you’ve made here.
Note that analog input signals are unaffected when using the
720p and
1080i resolution settings.
