original sound on the tape. You can add
sound to a tape already recorded in the 12-bit
mode without erasing the original sound.

Record audio in one of the following ways.
• Using the internal microphone (no connection
required).
• Connecting a microphone (optional) to the
MIC jack.
The audio input to be recorded takes precedence

Notes
• You cannot record additional audio:
– When the tape is recorded in the 16-bit mode.
– When the tape is recorded in the LP mode.
– When your camcorder is connected via the i.LINK
cable.
– On blank sections of the tape.
– When the write-protect tab of the cassette is set to
SAVE.
• When you are using the internal microphone to
record additional sound, the picture will not be
output from the A/V OUT jack. Check the picture on
the LCD screen or the viewfinder.
• When you use an external microphone (optional) to
record additional audio, you can check the picture
and the sound by connecting your camcorder to a TV
using the A/V connecting cable. However, the sound
you have recorded afterwards is not output from the
speaker. Check the sound by using a TV.
