Multichannel TV Sound (MTS)

This VCR is equipped with the MTS (Multi-channel TV Sound) system which decodes stereo and SAP (Second Audio Program) broadcasting signals. It also decodes the stereo TV sound of the local CATV system if it satisfies the assigned cable frequencies and EIA-recommended MTS stereo/bilingual TV sound system.

It can record and play back the audio signal in the VHS Hi-Fi audio sound system.

Second Audio Program (SAP)

This VCR can record and play back a Second Audio Program (SAP) for the second language or additional information. Usually primary language is recorded on the primary sound channel, and the second language or additional information is recorded on the SAP channel.

Audio track system

This VCR records a regular monaural audio signal on the normal audio track, and stereo Hi-Fi audio signal on the Hi- Fi audio track.

If you use the VCR equipped with the VHS Hi-Fi audio sound system to play back the tape recorded on this VCR, you can enjoy stereo Hi-Fi sound or bilingual programs. If you use the unit not equipped with the VHS Hi-Fi audio sound system, only a regular audio sound recorded on a normal audio track is played back.
