Reception
Some TV programs are broadcast with stereo audio or a Second Audio Program
(SAP) which offers a second language. The Reception feature lets you select the
type of audio you want to record. Press 1 repeatedly to switch between
Reception: STEREO, MONO, or SAP.
STEREO used for normal or stereo broadcast TV recording. The HI-FI
indicator lights on the VCR front panel when the VCRs tuned station is
broadcasting in stereo.
MONO used if the stereo signal is weak or the sound is too noisy.
SAP used to hear/record a Second Audio Program instead of the normal
audio on both the Hi-Fi and linear tracks.
Tape Playback
The VCR records the same audio on both the Hi-Fi stereo and linear tracks on
the tape. Hi-Fi sound is recorded on separate left and right stereo channels.
Monaural sound is recorded on the linear track. In the AUDIO menu, press the
2 button repeatedly to switch between Tape Playback: Hi-Fi, LINEAR, and MIX.
To enjoy Hi-Fi sound, connect your VCR to a stereo television or amplifier/
receiver using the audio jacks. The Tape Playback feature lets you select which
audio you play back.
Hi-Fi use to play back sound recorded on the Hi-Fi tracks and for normal
use.
LINEAR use to play back the sound recorded on the linear monaural track,
such as a Second Audio Program, or a dubbed voice-over.
MIX used to play back the sound recorded on both the linear track and
the Hi-Fi track, sound-on-sound. The Hi-Fi indicator lights when MIX is
active.
