Ayre Acoustics AX-7 - Manual (Page 11)

Mute
Muting and un-muting may
also be performed with the
remote control.
The mute button provides an easy way to
temporarily turn the volume of the AX-7 to “zero”.
The current volume control setting is retained in
memory and appears on the display. When the unit
is placed in “Standby”, the mute function is reset.
Tape Output
The “Tape Output” function
does not operate on the “Moon”
input. This avoids the
undesired possibility of
creating a feedback loop.
When the “Tape Output” button is pressed, the
indicator will light up and the signal from the
currently selected source component will be routed
to the “Tape Out” connectors. This allows a
recording to be made.
Turn the “Tape Output” off, unless a recording is
being made. This will completely disconnect the
recorder from the AX-7 (including the ground
connection), avoiding the possibility of undesired
ground loops.
Display
The display may also be
turned on and off with the
remote control.
The display of the AX-7 may be turned off, if
desired. A single blue light indicates that the
display is turned off. When further commands are
received, either from the front-panel buttons or the
remote control, the display will be activated for a
few seconds to confirm the command, and then turn
off automatically. Pressing the “Display” button
again will turn the display on.
