Notes
• You cannot record a digital audio signal using a
component connected to the analog MD/TAPE OUT
jacks. To record a digital audio signal, connect a
digital component to the DIGITAL OPTICAL
MD/TAPE OUT jack.
• Sound adjustments do not affect the signal output
from the MD/TAPE OUT jacks.
• The analog audio signals of the current input is
output from the MD/TAPE OUT jacks.
• The signals input to the MULTI CH IN jacks are not
output from the MD/TAPE OUT jacks even when
MULTI CH IN is being used. The analog audio
signals of the current or previously used input are
output.
• No signals are output from DIGITAL OPTICAL
MD/TAPE OUT jack when ANALOG DIRECT
function is being used. The digital circuitry power is
cut off to ensure superior sound quality when
"D.PWR XXX" is set to "D.PWR OFF".
• Some sources contain copy guards to prevent
recording. In this case, you may not be able to record
from the sources.
