Recording
This chapter explains how to record the selected input source to an AV component with recording capability, and how to record audio and video from two different sources.

Recording from Different AV Sources
With this function, you can record audio and video from different sources, allowing you to overdub audio onto your video recordings. This function takes advantage of the fact that when an audio-only input source (i.e., TAPE, TUNER, or CD) is selected, the video input source remains unchanged. For example, if you �rst select the VIDEO 3 input source, followed by the CD input source, you can watch the video from the VIDEO 3 input and listen to the audio from the CD input. In the following example, audio from the CD player connected to the CD IN jacks, and video from the camcorder connected to the VIDEO 3 IN jack are recorded by the VCR, which is connected to the VIDEO 1 OUT jacks.

Recording the Input Source
You can record only to AV components that are connected to the TAPE OUT or VIDEO 1 OUT jacks. See pages 22�31 for information on connecting your AV components to the AV receiver.

Notes: � You cannot record from AV components that are connected to the digital inputs. You must use analog connections. � The surround effects produced by the surround and DSP listening modes cannot be recorded. � You cannot record from an AV component that is connected to the multichannel input. � If you select another input source while recording, that input source will be recorded instead.
