You can select the audio format when you record a program or

STANDARD

analog signal from connected devices in STD mode. When this

function is set to “PCM&STANDARD”, you can obtain high-quality

PCM&STANDARD

 

audio sound.

 

 

 

 

 

 

STANDARD:

Select this when the picture quality is important

 

 

and when you record in MP2 format.

 

PCM&STANDARD: Select this when the sound quality is important.

 

 

When you record the analog signals or DV signals

 

 

from the camcorder in STD mode, PCM audio is

 

 

also recorded in addition to MP2 audio. In HS

 

 

mode, PCM audio is automatically recorded.

 DV AUDIO REC

Up to four audio signal channels can be input from a DV camcorder

through the DV IN connector (i.LINK). This VCR allows you to select

AUDIO2

and record two of these channels. This setting is used to specify which

two channels to record.

When there are four DV audio channels (32kHz):

 

 

 

AUDIO1: Records the two channels (L/R) of DV AUDIO 1.

 

AUDIO2: Records the two channels (L/R) of DV AUDIO 2.

 

1+2MIX: Mixes and records both DV AUDIO 1 and 2.

 

When there are two DV audio channels (48kHz):

 

 

 

Because there are only two channels, those two channels are recorded

 

regardless of the DV sound setting.
