Introduction
This video recorder will record and
playback
Hi-Fi stereo sound. There
are, therefore,
several
possible ways
of
recording
and
playing
back the sound. These are described
below.
The audio tracks
Video cassette
tapes
recorded on this video recorder will have a normal mono audio
track and two VHS Hi-Fi stereo audio tracks. These allow
you
to make audio
recordings
in Hi-Fi stereo or
bilingual
mode from a TV
broadcast,
a stereo audio
system,
a video
disc or another video recorder.
Using your
video recorder in combination with a Hi-Fi audio
system
will enhance the
sound
quality
of video
tapes.
