Operation
connecting its analog audio outputs to the
appropriate analog inputs (e.g. DVD) of the AVR.
Additionally, the digital signals will be passed
through to the Digital Audio Outputs

.
Tape Recording
In normal operation, the audio or video source
selected for listening through the AVR is sent to
the record outputs. This means that any program
you are watching or listening to may be record-
ed simply by placing machines connected to the
outputs for Tape Outputs

or Video 1
Outputs

in the record mode.
When a digital audio recorder is connected to
any of the Digital Audio Outputs
A
, you are
able to record the digital signal using a CD-R,
MiniDisc or other digital recording system.
Note that all digital signals will be passed
through to both, coaxial and optical, digital
outputs simultanously, no matter which kind of
digital input was selected.
NOTES:
• The digital outputs are active only when a digi-
tal signal is present, and they do not convert an
analog input to a digital signal, or change the for-
mat of the digital signal (e.g. Dolby Digital to
PCM or vice versa, but coaxial digital signals are
converted to optical signals and vice versa). In
additon, the digital recorder must be compatible
with the output signal. For example, the PCM dig-
ital output from a CD player may be recorded on
a CD-R or MiniDisc, but Dolby Digital or DTS sig-
nals may not.
• To make an analog recording from a digital
source is possible, but only from a PCM source
(not Dolby Digital or DTS) and correctly only with
"Surround Off" mode (with any Surround mode
only the L/R front signals will be fed to the
record outputs).
