Advantages of S-VHS video recorders
You can edit from VHS to S-VHS, S-VHS to VHS, or, from S-VHS to S-VHS.
●From VHS to S-VHS: Record VHS playback signals in the S-VHS mode. Although the picture quality is inherently limited by that of the original, the edited tape has better picture quality than those made by VHS-to-VHS editing.
●From S-VHS to VHS: Because the picture quality of the source material is very high, the edited tape has better picture quality than those made by VHS-to-VHS editing.
●From S-VHS to S-VHS: All signals will be transferred with minimum degradation.
You can use your recorder as the source player or as the recording deck.
