Recording This section explains how to record the input source and how to record audio and video from separate sources. Notes: • The surround sound and DSP listening modes cannot be recorded. • Copy-protected DVDs cannot be recorded. • Sources connected to the analog multichannel input cannot be recorded. • Sources connected to a digital input cannot be recorded. Only analog inputs can be recorded. • DTS signals will be recorded as noise, so don't attempt analog recording of DTS CDs or LDs. • While the Pure Audio listening mode is selected, the VCR/DVR OUT V and S jacks don't output video signals, so select another mode when recording. Recording the Input Source Audio sources can be recorded to a recorder (e.g., cassette deck, CDR, MD) connected to the TAPE OUT jack. Video sources can be recorded to a video recorder (e.g., VCR, DVR) connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks. See pages 20 to 36 for hookup information. 1 Use the input selector buttons to select the source that you want to record. DVD VCR/DVR CBL/SAT See "Which Connections Should I Use?" on page 21 to see which signals GAME/TV AUX TAPE can be output and recorded. TUNER CD Remote controller You can watch the source while recording it. The AV receiver's MASTER VOLUME control has no effect on recording. Recording from Different AV Sources You can overdub audio onto your video recordings by simultaneously recording audio and video from two separate sources. This is possible because only the audio source is switched when an audio-only input source, such as TAPE, TUNER, or CD, is selected, the video source remains the same. In the following example, audio from the CD player connected to the CD IN and video from the camcorder connected to the AUX INPUT VIDEO jack are recorded by the VCR connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.
