4.3 MANUALLY COPYING THE MAIN PATH TO ZONE2, ZONE3, OR RECORD
When Main is copied to another path, the source selected in MAIN is directed to the other path.
If a source component’s audio is connected to the processor using digital connection only, the Copy
function is the only way to deliver the sound to another path.
Front Panel
Press MAIN simultaneously with ZONE2, ZONE3, or REC. Use MAIN to select the source
.
Remote Control
Make sure the appropriate control mode is set, or REC path is selected, then press COPY.
When MAIN is copied, the display for the other paths reads “–MAIN–> ZONE2” (or ZONE3 or REC), along
with the information normally displayed. Copy can also be set permanently in the source setup menu.
Downmixing to 2-Channel Stereo:
The center, surround, and rear channels can be mixed into the left and right channels for the ZONE2, ZONE3,
TAPE, and VCR outputs. This can be done by the DVD player or the processor:
• Processor downmix: If the digital audio output from your DVD player is connected to the processor,
the processor down-mixes 5.1 channels into 2.0 when you copy MAIN to another path. This applies
whether the input is, Dolby Digital, DTS, or 6-Ch input.
• DVD player downmix: If the left/right analog outputs from your DVD player are connected to the
processor’s Analog Audio-In, the Dolby Digital down-mix done by your DVD player can be used for
ZONE2, ZONE3, TAPE, and VCR outputs, without having to copy MAIN. Note that DVD players do not
normally provide a down-mix for DTS material.
4.4 SOURCE SELECTION
After making sure that you are in the appropriate path (front panel) or appropriate control mode is set
(remote control), select a source.
6-Channel Analog Audio Input:
The 6-Ch audio can be routed to ZONE2, ZONE3, and RECORD outputs as long as Copy mode, which creates
the stereo down-mix, is used.
Source Seek (remote control only):
The SOURCE SEEK keys detect the previous/next active source, while
thekey advances one source at a time.
