Recording adjustments and other operations are 
performed from the recording components. Refer to the 
operating instructions for those components.
1
Turn on the power of this unit and all 
connected components.
2

Do a test recording before you start an actual recording.
• When this unit is set in the standby mode, you cannot record 
between other components connected to this unit.
• The setting of TONE CONTROL, VOLUME, “SP LEVEL” 
(page 48) and the sound field programs does not affect recorded 
material.
• A source connected to the MULTI CH INPUT jacks of this unit 
cannot be recorded.
• S-Video and composite video signals pass independently 
through this unit’s video circuits. Therefore, when recording or 
dubbing video signals, if your video source component is 
connected to provide only an S-Video (or only a composite 
video) signal, you can record only an S-Video (or only a 
composite video) signal to your VCR.
• Digital signals input to the DIGITAL INPUT jacks are not 
output to the analog AUDIO OUT (L/R) jacks for recording. 
Likewise, analog signals input to the AUDIO IN (L/R) jacks are 
not output to the DIGITAL OUTPUT jack. Therefore, if your 
source component is connnected to provide only digital (or 
analog) signals, you can only record digital (or analog) signals.
• A given input source is not output on the same REC OUT 
channel. (For example, the signal input from VCR IN is not 
output on VCR OUT.)
• Check the copyright laws in your country to record from 
records, CDs, radio, etc. Recording of copyrighted material may 
infringe copyright laws.
Special considerations when recording 
DTS software
The DTS signal is a digital bitstream. Attempting to 
digitally record the DTS bitstream will result in noise 
being recorded. Therefore, if you want to use this unit to 
record sources that have DTS signals recorded on them, 
the following considerations and adjustments need to be 
made.
For DVDs and CDs encoded with DTS, when your player 
is compatible with the DTS format, follow its operating 
instructions to make a setting so that the analog signal will 
be output from the player.

Notes
If you playback a video source that uses scrambled or 
encoded signals to prevent it from being dubbed, the 
picture itself may be disturbed due to those signals.
