4.2 PATH SELECTION
Path routes sources to the MAIN, ZONE2, ZONE3, or RECORD outputs.
• MAIN: Routes sources to your main listening/viewing room, with outputs for 7.1-channel audio and
the main display.
• ZONE2 and ZONE3: Routes sources to other rooms in your home. The source selection can be the
same as or different from the source selected in other paths. ZONE2 and ZONE3 each have outputs
for a TV and 2-channel audio. To listen to a source that is not connected via L/R analog audio, you
must “copy” it from MAIN (see section 4.3).
• RECORD: Except when prevented by copy protection, allows you to record sources independently
of what is selected in other paths. Composite and S-Video, and fixed-level analog audio outputs are
available for two recorders. In addition, the two coaxial digital audio outputs DIGITAL1 can put out
the audio of any digital source, or convert an analog source to digital. DIGITAL2 can put out the
same signal as DIGITAL1, or any of the sources set to Digital. To use conversion or downmixing, the
source must be copied from MAIN – see section4.3. Analog audio RECORD output has a signal only
if L/R analog audio is connected or when MAIN is copied.
Remote control – the REC PATH key is near the bottom of the remote control.
The displayed path returns to MAIN a few seconds after an adjustment is made in ZONE2, ZONE3, RECORD,
or HEADPHONE*. This is designed to prevent accidents. For example, if someone in the MAIN room wants
to turn up the volume there, andthe path is in ZONE2, the volumewould increase in ZONE2, notMAIN. Since
the person adjusting the volume doesn’t hear the change, chances are that he or she would keep turning
up the volume in ZONE2, unaware of what’s happening there.
*Except when MAIN is off or HEADPHONE is set to mute the MAIN speakers in the Volumes setup menu.
