Recording an audio source
The C31 allows listening to and recording from the same source, or listening to one source whilst
recording another. The signal to be recorded is sent to both the TAPE and VCR output sockets.
Selecting the source for recording
The recording outputs can be congured in two ways:
1. to allow recording of the source being listened to;
2. to allow recording of a particular (specied) source, regardless of what is being listened to.
To record the source being listened to, press the RECORD button
2
repeatedly until the display
shows ‘Record source’. After a few seconds the display reverts to showing the volume level, and you are
ready to record.
In this conguration, selecting a different input changes the source that is routed to the recording
outputs.
To record one source whilst listening to another, press RECORD again until the display shows
‘Record’ followed by the name of an input (e.g., ‘Aux’, ‘CD’, ‘Tuner’, etc.). Now press the source-selector
button on the front-panel for the source you wish to record. Your selection is shown on the display for a
few seconds, after which the display reverts to showing the volume level. You are now ready to record.
Pressing a different source-selection button changes the source that you are listening to, but does not
alter the source that is routed to the recording outputs.
Tape-to-tape copying (dubbing)
You can perform tape dubbing from VCR to TAPE, but not from TAPE to VCR.
For example, to copy from a cassette recorder connected to the VCR socket to a cassette recorder
connected to the TAPE socket, rst use the RECORD button as explained above and select ‘Record VCR’.
This routes the VCR signal to the TAPE output.
Listening using headphones
The headphone socket
bl
accepts headphones with an impedance rating between 8Ω and 2kΩ,
tted with a 6.5mm stereo jack plug. The pre-amp. outputs are muted when headphones are
plugged in.
The headphone socket is always active, unless the volume has been muted.
Product conguration
The C31 has a conguration menu that allows various performance and behaviour aspects to be
altered. This menu is described in detail on the next page. Buttons have been provided on the
front-panel to allow direct access to the most important conguration menu items:
4
BALANCE - gives direct access to the “Balance” menu item.
5
DISPLAY - this changes the display brightness. There are three brightness levels to chose
from: ‘on’, ‘dimmed’ and ‘off’. If the C31 is switched off while the display is set to ‘off’, the
display will be set to ‘dimmed’ when the C31 is switched on again.
9
REF - this toggles the volume display mode between ‘Standard’, ‘Fine’, and ‘Reference’ (these are
described on the next page. When the ‘Reference’ volume display is selected, the light above the
Ref button is illuminated.
bk
TRIM - gives direct access to the “Trim” menu item.
