NOTES:

●Sound is not heard from the speaker during Audio Dubbing.

●When editing onto a tape that was recorded at

12-BIT, the old and new soundtracks are recorded separately.

●If you dub onto a blank space on the tape, the sound may be disrupted. Make sure you only edit recorded areas.

●If feedback or howling occurs during TV playback, move the camcorder’s microphone away from the TV, or turn down the TV’s volume.

●If you change from 12-BIT to 16-BIT in mid- recording and then use the tape for Audio Dubbing, it is not effective from the point where 16-BIT recording began.

●During Audio Dubbing, when the tape moves to scenes recorded in the LP mode, scenes recorded in 16-BIT audio or a blank portion, Audio Dubbing stops.

●Audio dubbing is also possible using an optional microphone connected to the MIC connector.
