Resumen del manual
. You can check the progress of the recording at any time by pressing the TAPE button again. VCR OPERATION The AV8 has a fully independent VCR loop for audio and video (Composite and S-video only). This can be configured to record the source you are watching to or to record any other input using the ‘Record to VCR’ option in the ‘Main Menu Screen 2’. . Pressing the VCR button selects audio and video from the VCR input. . If the ‘Record to VCR’ option is set to Source (its default setting), the VCR LED illuminates as well as the previously selected input. . If the ‘Record to VCR’ option is set to a specific input, the VCR LED illuminates as well as the input selected in the VCR menu. This indicates the VCR loop is active and displays the source that will be recorded. For example, if ‘Record to VCR’ is set to Source and you want to record the SAT input: . Select the SAT input then put your VCR into record pause so that it will monitor its input. . Press the VCR button, and you can now watch the audio and video actually being recorded by your VCR from the satellite system. . If you select a different source from SAT, the recording changes to this source. If you want to record from SAT while watching the AV input: . Call up the ‘Main Menu Screen 2’ and set ‘Record to VCR’ to SAT. . Put your VCR into record pause so that it monitors its input, then press the VCR button. . You can now start the recording and watch the audio and video actually being recorded by your VCR. . Once the recording is running, or you have set the timer on the VCR, press the AV button to watch the AV input. The recording of the SAT input continues or starts when the timer activates. . You can check the progress of the recording at any time by pressing the VCR button again. STEREO DIRECT To listen to a pure analogue stereo input, press the DIRECT button. The Direct mode automatically bypasses all processing and any surround functions. In Direct mode, digital processing is shut down to improve the sound quality and reduces digital noise within the AV8 to an absolute minimum. The LED above the DIRECT button on the front panel also lights to indicate this mode. NOTE: When the digital processing is shut down, no digital output is available. VOLUME CONTROL It is important to realise that the position of the volume control indicator bar is not an accurate indication of the power delivered to your loudspeakers. The AV8 often delivers its full output power long before the volume control reaches its maximum position, particularly when listening to heavily recorded music. In comparison, some movie sountracks can appear to be very quiet, as many directors like to keep the maximum levels in reserve for special effect sequences. If your system is set up in THX reference configuration, the volume range will cover –53dB to +18dB, where 0dB is the THX reference level at which the movie director intended the movie to be reproduced. If your room is small you may find this too loud, so reduce the level until you are comfortable. HEADPHONES To use headphones with the AV8, plug the headphones into the socket on the left hand side of the front panel. When headphones are plugged into the headphones socket the outputs for the zone to which they are assigned is muted. If that zone is zone 1 and it is in a surround sound mode, the audio will be downmixed to two channels (2.0). The two-channel down-mix is required so that the centre channel and surround information can be heard via the headphones. NOTE: If the headphones are selected to zone 2, only analogue sources can be heard as there is no digital-to-analogue conversion available for zone 2. To listen to zone 2 using the headphones: . Call up ‘Main Menu Screen 1’ by pressing the MENU button. . Navigate to screen 3 of the Main Menu by pressing the4button on the remote, or by turning the volume knob on the front panel. . Move the highlighted line to ‘Headphone Out’. . Use the4button on the remote, or use the volume knob to select zone 2. When listening to zone 2 via the headphones, you can control the source and volume from ‘Main Menu Screen 3’. To select a source: . Move the highlighted line to ‘Zone 2 audio’. . Use the34buttons to select the source you wish to hear. To change the volume: . Move the highlighted line to ‘Vol’. . Use the34buttons to move the volume up and down. NOTE: If the headphones are associated with zone 2, the main volume control knob on the AV8 will not adjust the headphone volume level as this only controls the main zone 1 volume setting. EFFECTS/FX The EFFECTS button (FX on the remote) cycles through the available effect modes. The effects are only available when the AV8 is in stereo mode. The AV8 effects are: Effect Description None No effects active, stereo signal Music Extracted ambience and centre information Party All speakers on Club Small room Hall Medium reverberant room Sport Very reverberant with extracted ambience and dry centre dialogue Church Long reverberant room For more inf...
