while editing.

VCR as the player, connect the player’s AUDIO OUT
connector to the AUDIO IN L connector on the recorder.

Advantages Of S-VHS VCRs
You can edit from VHS to S-VHS, from S-VHS to VHS, or
from S-VHS to S-VHS.
● From VHS to S-VHS (VIDEO-VIDEO connection): Record
VHS playback signals in the S-VHS mode. Although the
picture quality is inherently limited by that of the original,
the edited tape has better picture quality than those made
by VHS-to-VHS editing.
● From S-VHS to VHS (VIDEO-VIDEO connection): Because
the picture quality of the source material is very high, the
edited tape has better picture quality than those made by
VHS-to-VHS editing.
● From S-VHS to S-VHS (S-VIDEO connection): All signals
will be transferred without degradation.
