Descriptionsof audioand videofunctions
Below are descriptions of the audio and video functions, their uses
and their settings. To select these functions and adjust their
settings, refer to the section "Selecting and adjusting the audio
and video functions". (See page 34.)
audio monitor (Listento:)
The monitor function allows you to listen to t:]e various audio
tracks that your VCR is capable of recording. You can choose to
listen to a MONO track, both channels of the STEREO track, or
either of the channels (left (L) and right (R)) of the stereo track.
Choose "Stereo" to listen to both stereo channels.
Choose "L" to listen to the left channel of a stereo track.
Choose "R" to listen to the right channel of the stereo track.
The MONO track is lower in quality th an the other% and
the monitor is automatically set to "M_,no"if you are
watching a tape that was not recorded in VHS Hi-Fi. Set
the audio monitor to "Mono" to hear ai= S.A.P. signal
recorded on the mono track of a Hi-Fi tape (see below).
If you have your VCR conneci_d to a surroun J sound system, set
the audio monitor to "Stereo." Surround sound requires both left
and right channels to create the rear channel effects.
If you are receiving a stereo signal, the word _Stereo" will display
on the TV screen for 4 seconds. If you are receiving an S.A.P.
broadcast, the word "SAP" will display on thai,TV screen for 4
seconds.
normalrecording(Record:)
When your VCR is recording, it actually reco::ds the audio portion
of a program twice: once on the stereo Hi-Fi tracks, and once on
the mono track. Additionally, your VCR is able to receive Sepa-
rate Audio Program broadcasts, also known as an S.A.P. broad-
cast. An S.A.P. broadcast is an alternative a_Ldio soundtrack for a
program; it is often a soundtrack in another Ianguage.
You can use the normal recording function tc record the S.A.P.
broadcast on the mono track by choosing "St_reo + SAP." Other-
wise, choose "Stereo". In either case, the mai:] program is re-
corded on the stereo Hi-Fi track. Also, if there is no S.A.P. broad-
cast, the VCR will record the main program on the mono track.
