Recording Audio and Video from
Separate Sources
You can overdub audio onto your video recordings by
simultaneously recording audio and video from two
separate sources. This is possible because only the audio
source is switched when an audio-only input source,
such as TAPE, TUNER, or CD, is selected, the video
source remains the same.
In the following example, audio from the CD player
connected to the CD IN jacks, and video from the
camcorder connected to the DVD IN jack are recorded
by the VCR connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.
