Chapter 8:
Making recordings
Making an audio or a video 
recording
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). 
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 28 for more on video connections). 
1
Select the source you want to record.
Use the 
MULTI CONTROL buttons (or INPUT 
SELECT).
2
Select the input signal (if necessary).
Press the 
 button then press 
SIGNAL SEL to select the input signal 
corresponding to the source component (see 
page 43 for more on this).
3
Prepare the source you want to record.
Tune to the radio station, load the CD, video, 
DVD etc.
4
Prepare the recorder.
Insert a blank tape, MD, video etc. into the 
recording device and set the recording levels.
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.
5
Start recording, then start playback of the 
source component.

Note
1 • The receiver’s volume, balance, tone (bass, treble, loudness), and surround effects have no effect on the recorded signal.
• Some digital sources are copy-protected, and can only be recorded in analog.
• Some video sources are copy-protected. These cannot be recorded.
