During 4-channel recording, the same audio signals are recorded onto Audio Channels 3 and 1, and Audio Channels 4 and 2.

Attaching an IEEE1394 interface board (AJ-YAD800G, optional accessory) and recording in the DVCPRO50 format via the 1394 input enables independent audio signals to be recorded onto each of four channels.

Your AJ-SPC700P is factory-set to perform no recording on Audio Channels 3 and 4 in the DVCPRO and DV formats. To enable four-channel recording, the menu option 25M REC CH SEL on the <MIC/AUDIO1> screen must be set to “4CH” from the MAIN OPERATION page.
