on the front panel or on the rear panel.

NOTES:

When monitoring the sound during Audio Dubbing, the normal 
soundtrack is automatically selected. If you wish to hear the 
Hi-Fi or mixed sound (Hi-Fi + normal soundtracks), press 

A.MONITOR

 to select “NORM HI-FI”. (

pg. 9, “Selecting 

monitor sound”)

Audio Dubbing stops automatically when the counter reaches 
“0:00:00”, and the VCR enters the Play mode. Check the 
counter reading on the screen before dubbing.

Audio Dubbing is not possible with a cassette whose record 
safety tab has been removed.

When playing back an audio-dubbed tape, press 

A.MONITOR

 

to select the soundtrack you wish to hear. (

pg. 9, “Selecting 

monitor sound”) 

Insert Editing and AV Dubbing

Insert Editing:

You can replace a recorded scene with new scene recorded on 
another tape or with other material. Both the picture and the 
sound recorded on the Hi-Fi sound track are replaced at the same 
time.

AV Dubbing:

You can perform Audio Dubbing and Insert Editing at the same 
time. This means that the picture and the sounds recorded on the 
Hi-Fi sound track and on the normal track are replaced at the 
same time.

For AV Dubbing, you can edit pictures and sound using different 
sources; connect a video source to the video input connector, 
and an audio source to the audio input connectors.

A

Make connections

Connect an audio/video cable between the VCR’s audio/video 
input connectors and the other component’s audio/video output 
connectors.

Insert Editing and AV Dubbing are possible by using the audio/
video input connectors on the front panel or on the rear panel.

Various connection for editing tapes

The following three methods can be used for editing tapes.

VHS to S-VHS editing (VIDEO-VIDEO connection):

Although the picture quality is inherently limited by the original 
VHS quality, the edited tape has better picture quality than 
those made by VHS-to-VHS editing.

S-VHS to VHS editing (VIDEO-VIDEO connection): 

Since the original source is recorded in S-VHS mode, the edited 
tape has better picture quality than those made by VHS-to-VHS 
editing.

S-VHS to S-VHS (S-VIDEO connection):

 

Original picture quality of S-VHS made can be duplicated with 
minimal picture degradation. This is the best editing method 
you can use on S-VHS VCRs.
