Editing
86
You can add music or commentary to a tape recorded in 12-bit audio
mode.
Music or narration is recorded on the stereo 2 track, while the original
sound on stereo 1 track remains.
For audio dubbing, use the tape recorded by this VCR. If you want to
edit the one recorded by other VCRs (include other DHR-1000s), first,
you have to dub it to the tape on this VCR, then edit it. If you edit the
tape recorded by the other VCRs, the sound quality may be reduced
and the picture may be noisy.
