Recording mode setting in digital
audio source recording (main
unit only)
When recording a multi-channel digital audio source, it is
recommended to set up the recording mode properly to convert
the digital input into the 2-channel analog output. Usually use
the "A-REC" (Auto record) mode.
However, some discs often produce sound skipping. The "M-REC"
(Manual record) mode should be used with such a disc.

Auto record mode
"A-REC"
The digital input signals (DTS, Dolby Digital
or PCM) are identified automatically and
converted into stereo signals that are ready
for recording.
Manual record mode
"M-REC"
The input signal type at the moment this
mode is selected is held throughout this
mode.
• When the "M-REC" mode is selected, the digital input signal is
converted to stereo signals (down-mix). But once the digital
signal is changed to other signal, no signal is output.
• When the "A-REC" mode is selected, the digital input signal is
converted to stereo signals even if the digital signal is changed.
• When the digital mode changes during recording in the "A-REC"
mode, the audio input source may be interrupted momentarily.
