SET UP Using Other Functions Recording from Digital Audio Components The following explanations show you how to record digital audio. Using this method you can make exact digital copies of sources like CDs or MDs. The only drawback is that you can't switch between various recorders at the touch of a button like you can with analog recordings (see the previous page). If you look on the back of the VSX-27TX/26TX/24TX you'll find a digital out jack which is marked PCM/ /DTS OUT (it's to the right of the digital in jacks in the upper lefthand corner). If you connect this to the optical input on a digital recorder (currently these include MD, DAT and CD-R) you can make direct digital recordings with this unit. Of course, the digital components you want to record all need to be connected to the VSX-27TX/26TX/24TX with digital inputs as well. See p.10 if you haven't made these connections. The receiver's volume, channel level, tone (BASS, TREBLE, and LOUDNESS), and surround effects have no memo effect on the recorded signal.

It is still possible to copy these digital sources if you have hooked the components up with analog connections (in this case the copies will not be exact digital reproductions). Refer to the previous page in this case. OPERATIONOPERATION 61
