For example, insert a CD into the CD
player.
3 Insert a blank tape or MD into the
recording deck and adjust the
recording level, if necessary.

Notes
You cannot record a digital audio signal using a
component connected to the analog TAPE OUT or
MD/DAT OUT jacks. To record a digital audio
signal, connect a digital component to the
DIGITAL MD/DAT OUT jacks.
Sound adjustments do not affect the signal output
from the TAPE OUT or MD/DAT OUT jacks.
The analog audio signals of the current function is
output from the REC OUT jacks.

not output from the REC OUT jacks even when
MULTI CH DIRECT is selected. The analog audio
signals of the current function are output.
No signals are output from DIGITAL OUT jacks
(MD/DAT OPTICAL OUT) when ANALOG
DIRECT is selected. The digital circuitry power is
cut off to ensure superior sound quality when
D.POWER is set to AUTO OFF.
Recording on a video tape
You can record from a VCR, a TV, or an LD
player using the receiver. You can also add
audio from a variety of audio sources when
editing a video tape. See the operating
instructions of your VCR or LD player if you
need help.
1 Select the program source to be
recorded.
2 Prepare the component for playing.
For example, insert the laser disc you want
to record into the LD player.
3 Insert a blank video tape into the VCR

4 Start recording on the recording VCR,
then start playing the video tape or
laser disc you want to record.
Tip
You can record the sound from any audio source onto
a video tape while copying from a video tape or laser
disc. Locate the point where you want to start
recording from another audio source, select the
program source, then start playback. The audio from
that source will be recorded onto the audio track of
the video tape instead of the audio from the original
medium. To resume audio recording from the original
medium, select the video source again.

component connected to the analog VIDEO 1 OUT
