How sound is recorded on a video tape
The VCR records sound onto two separate tracks. Hi-fi audio is recorded
onto the main track along with the picture. Monaural sound is recorded onto
the normal audio track along the edge of the tape.
Notes
To listen to playback sounds in stereo, you must use the Scart or AUDIO OUT
connections.
When you play a tape recorded in monaural, the sound is heard in monaural
regardless of the AUDIO MONITOR setting.
