NOTES:

●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.

●To perform Audio Dubbing while watching on the television, make connections. ( pg. 22)

●To perform Audio Dubbing with a video unit connected to the camcorder’s AV connector, first set “S/AV INPUT” to “ON” in VIDEO Menu.
