Audio Dubbing
J
The sound dubbing enables you to replace the recorded sound on the mono track of a VHS tape
whilst keeping the recorded sound on the HiFi tracks. A unit connected to the AV1, AV2, AV3, or
AV4 sockets, or even a microphone connected to the MICRO socket on the front of the video
recorder can provide means of dubbing your recordings.
1 Rewind the cassette to the start of the sequence to be dubbed and pause the picture using
the PAUSE (28) key.
2 Press the key AV on the remote control (22) or AUDIO DUBBING on the front of the
video recorder to activate the dubbing function.
3 Select the connected unit (Au3 for white, red and yellow cinch sockets on the front of
the video recorder; Au1, Au2 or Au4 for the sockets at the back of the unit; MIC for a
microphone connected to the front of the video recorder) to monitor the sound.
4 Press PLAY (24) to start dubbing, PAUSE (28) to interrupt the dubbing and STOP
(27) to stop. It is possible to connect a headphone to the HEADPHONE socket on the
front of the video recorder to monitor the sound.
