5-1-5 Recording Analog AudioRecording with emphasis

You can emphasize analog audio signals that are recorded from the AUDIO INPUT connectors. When the emphasis is removed during playback, high frequency noise is effectively eliminated without affecting the original signal.

To use the emphasis function, set item 806.AUDIO EMPHASIS in the VTR SETUP menu to on. During playback, regardless of this setting, only signals to which emphasis have been applied are automatically de-emphasized.
