How sound is recorded on a video tape

The VCR records sounds onto two separate tracks. Hi-fi audio is recorded

onto the main track along with the picture. Monaural sound is recorded onto

the normal audio track along the edge of the tape.

Notes
• To listen to playback sounds in stereo, you must use the AUDIO OUT connections.
• When you play a tape recorded in monaural, the sound is heard in monaural
regardless of the AUDIO MONITOR setting.
• If the AUDIO MONITOR button does not function, check that AUDIO MIX in the
SET UP MENU is set to OFF.
• If HIFI AUDIO is set to STD, the standard sound will be recorded on both the hi-fi
and normal audio tracks. Pressing AUDIO MONITOR will not change the sound.
