Hi-Fi Stereo Sound System
Your VCR will record and playback Hi-Fi stereo
sound. In addition it has a stereo NICAM digital stereo
sound decoder. This allows you to record and playback
the sound in several different ways. Video cassettes
recorded on your VCR will have a normal mono audio
track and two VHS Hi-Fi stereo audio tracks. These
stereo tracks allow you to make audio recordings in
Hi-Fi stereo or bilingual mode from a TV broadcast,
stereo audio system, video disc or another Hi-Fi VCR.
1. Your VCR’s NICAM digital sound decoder allows
you to enjoy broadcasts with NICAM sound, as
well as standard stereo, bilingual and mono sound.
The particular type of sound received or that
recorded will be briefly displayed on the TV screen
for a couple of seconds:
STEREO NICAM
Sound is automatically recorded on the Hi-Fi
stereo and mono tracks of the video tape.
BIL NICAM
Both audio channels will be recorded on the Hi-Fi
stereo tracks. The primary language channel (left)
will be recorded on the mono track of the video
tape.
MONO
The sound is recorded on the Hi-Fi tracks and the
mono track of the video tape without any separation.
2. Press AUDIO repeatedly until the desired audio
mode appears.
3. The choice is STEREO, LEFT, RIGHT and
MONO. In BIL NICAM playback the primary lan-
guage is output on the left channel and the sec-
ondary channel is output simultaneously from the
right channel when audio output is set to
STEREO.
The primary language will be output from both
channels when the audio setting is MONO.
Please note that when adjusting the tracking
control Hi-Fi stereo sound may revert to MONO.
Note:
When OFF is selected in NIC, only mono sound will
be output.
