Recording
The DTR-5.2 can also be used to record an input source media. This
allows you to make copies of the music or videos you like, copy
them from one type of media to another, or even record what is being
broadcast on television or radio.
Recording an audio source
Make all connections between the tape deck and the receiver as
shown in the “Connections” diagram (pages 11-14).
1. Insert a blank tape into the tape deck.
2. Press the input source button for the source you
want to record.
• If you select DVD, Video 1, Video 2, or Video 3, only the audio
will be recorded.
• If you select FM or AM, set the tuner to the station you want to
record.
Notes:
• If you change the input source during recording, you will record
the signals from the newly selected input source.
• You cannot record the surround effects.
• You cannot perform digital recording with the DTR-5.2. Also,
digital-to-analog signal conversion is not possible, so to record
audio signals from digital sources (e.g. CD players), you must
not only make the digital connection, but the analog connection
as well.
• You cannot record the source connected to the MULTI
CHANNEL INPUT connector.

Recording data from a video disc player (or a
video camcorder) to VCR
Video disc programs can be recorded onto a VCR (VIDEO 1).
1. Load a disc in the video disc player or DVD player,
and insert a blank tape in the VCR (VIDEO 1).
2. Press the Video 2, Video 3, or DVD button.
3. Start playing the source and recording on the VCR.
Refer to the video equipment connections section on the page 12.
Tip:
If you want to record the video from one source and the audio from
another source together, such as recording the video from a video
camera connected to VIDEO 2 and the audio from a CD player
connected to CD, in step 2 above, select the source for the video and
then select the source for the audio. The remaining procedure is the
same as that above.
