OTHER FEATURES

RECEPTION

Some TV programs are broadcast with stereo audio or a Second Audio Program (SAP) which offers a second language. The reception feature lets you select the type of audio you want to record. Press 1 to switch between Reception: STEREO, MONO, and SAP.

•Select STEREO for normal or stereo broadcast TV recording.

•Select MONO if the stereo signal is weak and the sound is too noisy.

•Select SAP to record a Second Audio Program instead of normal audio on both the Hi-Fi and linear tracks.

TAPE PLAYBACK

The VCR records the same audio on both Hi-Fi and linear tracks on the tape. Hi-Fi sound is recorded on a separate left and right stereo channels. Monaural sound is recorded on the linear track. Press 2 to switch between tape playback: HI-FI, LINEAR, and MIX.

To enjoy Hi-Fi sound, connect your VCR to a stereo television or amplifier/receiver using the AUDIO/VIDEO jacks. The Tape Playback feature lets you select which audio you use during playback.

•Select HI-FI to play back sound recorded on the Hi-Fi track and for normal use.

•Select LINEAR to play back sound recorded on a linear monaural track, such as a Second Audio Program (SAP), or a dubbed voice.

•Select MIX to play back the sound recorded on both the linear and Hi-Fi tracks, sound-on-sound.
