DIGITAL RECORD SELECT
Pressing
digital record select
button allows you to select the digital source
you want to record to your digital recorder. It is possible to record a differ-
ent digital source than the one selected for listening.
To record a digital source connected to the Nº30.5, press
digital record se-
lect
. The Nº30.5’s display will show
RECORD
followed by the source cur-
rently selected. For example:
If you want to record a different source than the one currently selected,
press the corresponding source selection button; the display will then show
the input number of that source (for example,
RECORD CD2
).
To disable the record output, press the button again for the source which is
currently selected to be recorded. The display will read
RECORD OFF
and
the digital output of the Nº30.5 will be temporarily disabled, eliminating
any potential interaction between the record output circuitry of the Nº30.5
and the rest of your system. Repeatedly pressing the button for the cur-
rently selected recording source will toggle the Nº30.5 between
RECORD
OFF
and that source. Selecting record for an unused input (see
Nº30.5 Input
Names
, p.24) will also cause the Nº30.5 to display
RECORD OFF
.
After a few seconds, the Display will return to normal.
Caution!
When using a digital recorder (like a DAT) that also allows
recording of analog signals, a specific combination of
interconnections and settings on the digital recorder, the
Nº30.5, and an associated preamplifier may create a
“feedback loop” that may damage your system’s
loudspeakers. For guidance in avoiding such a feedback
loop, consult your Mark Levinson dealer.
