You can select the audio track you want to hear during playback or in tuner mode. This is especially useful for two-channel sound (multi-language) transmissions.

!Press the pbutton. The display indicates the current setting. If you press the pbut- ton repeatedly, you can select between four possi- bilities (STEREO, LEFT, RIGHT, MONO).

Notes:

*During playback, you can select a further possi- bility, the "MIXMODE" function.

With this function, you will hear the mono sound of the normal (linear) track together with the sound of the stereo track. This enables you to play record- ings which have been dubbed.

*If no stereo sound is recorded on the cassette, the video recorder switches automatically to mono sound.

Surround-sound playback

If your TV set or hifi equipment is suited for surround- sound play, the video recordings will be played back with this audio system.
