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 16 for more on connections). 

If you want to record a video source, you also 
need to use the same type of connection for the 
source as for the recorder. For example, you 
can’t record a component hooked up to 
composite video jacks with a recorder hooked 
up to the component video outputs (see 
page 23 for more on video connections). 

Use the 

MULTI CONTROL buttons (or INPUT 

SELECTOR).

Press the 

 button then press 

SIGNAL SEL to select the input signal 
corresponding to the source component (see 
page 36 for more on this).

Tune to the radio station, load the CD, video, 
DVD etc.

Insert a blank tape, MD, video etc. into the 
recording device and set the recording levels.

2

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.

1 If you are recording a video source, you need to use the same type of connection for the source as for the recorder. For example, 

you can’t record a component hooked up to composite video jacks with a recorder hooked up to the component video outputs 
(see Connecting an HDD/DVD recorder, VCR and other video sources on page 23 for more on video connections). 

2 The receiver’s volume, balance, tone (bass, treble, loudness), and surround effects have no effect on the recorded signal.
