Cassette Deck/VCR Features
You can connect two cassette decks to the receiver. Selecting either
MD/
TAPE 1
or
TAPE 2 MONITOR
lets you hear the playback from the cassette
deck you connected to the receiver’s corresponding (
MD/TAPE 1
or
TAPE 2
MONITOR
) jacks.
Using the MD/TAPE 1 and
TAPE 2 MONITOR Buttons
Press
MD/TAPE 1
. MD/TAPE1 appears on the display. You hear the play-
back from the cassette deck or VCR you connected to the receiver’s
MD/
TAPE 1 IN
jacks.
Press
TAPE 2 MONITOR
. TAPE 2 appears on the display along with the last
program source you selected. You can hear playback or monitor a
recording from the cassette deck you connected to the receiver’s
TAPE 2
MONITOR
jacks. The
TAPE 2 MONITOR REC
jacks continue to output sound
from the previously selected source after you press
TAPE 2 MONITOR
.
To return to the previous source, press
TAPE 2 MONITOR
again so TAPE 2
disappears.
Notes:
• If you press
TAPE 2 MONITOR
when that cassette deck is neither play-
ing nor recording, the receiver mutes the current audio source. To
hear the audio source, press
TAPE 2 MONITOR
so TAPE 2 disappears
from the display.
• Do not press
TAPE 2 MONITOR
while you are recording on the deck
connected to
TAPE 2 MONITOR REC
. because it interrupts the record-
ing for about 1 second.
Monitoring a
Program Source
The receiver sends the audio of the program source you select—
VCR
,
DVD/LD
,
TV/SAT
,
VIDEO
,
CD
, or
FM/AM
(tuner)—to the
MD/TAPE 1
OUT/REC
and
TAPE 2 MONITOR OUT/REC
jacks. If you select one of the audio/video source,
the video program is also sent to the
VIDEO OUT TO MONITOR TV
jack.
The
VOLUME
control does not affect the level of the signal going to the
tape decks.
Dubbing a Cassette Tape
You can copy (dub) a cassette tape from one cassette deck to another
through the STAV-3790.
You can use either deck as the playback or recording deck. However, if
you want to monitor the cassette deck during dubbing, use the deck
connected to the
MD/TAPE 1
jacks as the source, and the deck you con-
nected to the
TAPE 2 REC
jacks as the recording deck. Then press
TAPE 2
MONITOR
so TAPE 2 and the last program source you selected appear on
the display. (See “Using the MD TAPE 1 and TAPE 2 MONITOR But-
tons”.)
The
VOLUME
control does not affect the level of the signal going to the
tape decks.
Note: The receiver passes through the original signals as they are.
Therefore, you cannot dub the digital signal to analog signal or vice
versa.
