This unit automatically selects the sync signal as shown in

the table below, depending on the presence of external sync

input (SYNC IN) and video input (VIDEO IN), the No. 003

<SYNC SELECT> menu switch setting and operation mode.

When IEEE 1394 input is selected, “INT” is selected

regardless of the setting. When the No. 108 <VIDEO

INPUT SELECT> menu switch is set to “COMPONENT”,

the operation is the same as that performed with the No.

003 <SYNC SELECT> menu switch set to “AUTO”

regardless of the setting.

Use the front panel [AUDIO MONITOR] switch or No. 211 <AUDIO MONITOR> menu switch to select the audio channels you want to monitor. The selected audio channel is shown in the table below. Adjust the audio volume level on the monitor.  See “Playback preparation” on page 28.

Inputs

5Analog inputs

Audio connectors (CH1/3, CH2/4) Analog input connectors are only provided for 2 channels. It is not possible to record 4 channels simultaneously. Audio input from each connector is normally recorded on the CH1 and CH2 channels. Recording on the CH3 and CH4 can be performed in the Audio Dubbing mode with the No. 245 <SAMPLING RATE> menu switch set to “32K”. For audio dubbing, refer to “Audio dubbing” on page 27.

5 Digital inputs Digital signals conforming to IEEE 1394 can be input to the [DV IN/OUT] connector. In this case, the audio recording level cannot be adjusted. When audio signals are input to the [DV IN/OUT] connector, some noise will occur at the point where recording ends. To reduce this noise during playback, set the No. 214 <V. FADE> menu switch to “ON”.

5 Mic input jack Connect a monaural microphone. The same audio is recorded on both channels.

Outputs

5 Analog outputs Audio connectors (CH1/3, CH2/4) Analog output connectors are provided for 2 channels. For MiniDV format, use the front panel [AUDIO OUTPUT] switch to select for 4-channel audio. The selected audio channel is shown in the table below.  See “Playback preparation” on page 28.
