Making an Audio or a Video Recording
The following steps show you how to make an audio or a video recording from the built in tuner, or from an
audio or video source connected to the receiver (such as a CD player or TV). Recordings can be made to a CD-
Recorder, cassette deck, MD, VCR, or DVR deck connected to the CD-R/TAPE/MD, VCR or DVR in/out
connectors.
The receiver's volume, balance tone (bass, treble, loudness), and surround effects (Dolby
Pro Logic/Dolby Digital and DSP settings) have no effect on the recorded signal.
