this option, the feed to the devices connected to the
Record Outputs £
will be the same as the
input source profile selected for listening through the
2.0’s main outputs. Put another way, when
Track
Input
is selected, whatever you hear through the
system will also be sent to the recorder.

This is a simple way to make a copy of whatever you
are watching or listening to, but if you choose this
option it is important to note that the record output
will change if the main input source is changed. If
you want to make certain that the recording is NOT
INTERRUPTED, press the
or
Menu Control
buttons
i
so that
Selectable
is highlighted
on the
Output
line.
Selectable Recording
When the
Selectable
option is chosen, an
additional line appears on the menu (Figure OSD-39).
The sources selected on this menu page will remain
assigned to the record outputs regardless of which input
source is being listened to through the main system.
Thus, you may watch and listen to one set of input
sources, and record a totally different set of sources, and
the record feed will not be changed or interrupted as long
as the 2.0 remains turned on.

Notes on recording with the 2.0
When an S-Video source is selected for recording, it
will be sent to both the
S-Video
and standard
Composite Video Outputs ⁄ ›
. Composite
video sources, however, DO NOT appear at the
S-Video outputs. The only way to record a composite
source is through the
Composite Video Record
Output
.
The feed to the record outputs is at a fixed level, and
is not altered by any changes to the volume control or
other Effects settings.
The feed to the record outputs is “clean,” in that the
on-screen menu displays do not appear on the record
outputs. This prevents unwanted information from
interfering with recordings.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Audio from Dolby Digital,
DTS or PCM digital sources may not be recorded.
To make a recording from a digital audio source
you must use the analog outputs provided on the
playback machine.
