Multichannel TV Sound(MTS) and Hi-Fi audio soundsystem

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.
