If 
the 
proiector 
is  installed 
in 
a 
separate 
booth 
or  room 
alongside 
the 
auditorium,
the operator 
signals 
to 
the 
narrator 
to

speaking 
by

a 
good 
view 
of 
the 
screen, 
without 
which 
proper 
synchronization 
of 
sound 
and  image
would  be 
impossible.
Another 
more 
practical 
solution 
is 
to 
record 
the 
narration 
first 
on 
a 
tape 
recorder,
and 
then 
to  transfer 
it 
onto 
the

without

ment.  To 
dub

the 
output 
from

must

In 
this 
case, 
only 
one 
person 
is 
needed 
to 
make 
the recorcing. 
If 
the 
sormd 
consists
of  a 
mixed 
output 
from 
various 
channels, 
the 
operator 
must 
keep 
a 
check 
on 
the  rela-
tive 
levels 
by  monitoring 
the 
amplifier 
output 
with 
earphones, 
nc  matter 
which 
system
of 
recording 
is 
used.

necessary
