Playback sound

During tape playback, the camcorder detects the sound mode in which the recording was made, and plays
the sound back. Select the type of sound to accompany your playback picture. According to the menu access
explanation on page38, select “SOUND MODE” or “12BIT MODE” from the Menu Screen and set it to the
desired parameter.
NOTES:
●The “SOUND MODE” setting is available for both 12-bit and 16-bit sound. (In previous models’ functions,
“12-bit” is called “32 kHz” and “16-bit” is called “48 kHz”.)
●The camcorder cannot detect the sound mode in which the recording was made during fast-forward or
rewind. During playback the sound mode is displayed in the upper left corner.
