(or the ST-1/ST-2 MIX BALANCE buttons on the remote control).

(ii) Choosing the output channel

When you play back a tape that was recorded in 12 bit mode, you can select the output:
Stereo 1, Stereo 2, or a mixture of the two.
• Audio from the 16 bit mode only contains stereo 1 sound and so you cannot/do not need to select the
audio mix. The same is true for the 12 bit stereo 1 mode, unless new sound has been added post-
recording. Go directly to stage (ii).
• You only need to release the fixed level (step 2) if your aim is to mix the balance.
