ª Audio Dubbing
≥The blank section of a tape cannot be dubbed.

is dubbed, images and sounds may be disturbed
when this portion of the tape is played back.
≥If you set the tape counter back to 0 at the position
where you want to stop Audio Dubbing so as to
make it possible to use the Memory Stop Function
(l 56), Audio Dubbing is terminated automatically
when the tape reaches this position.

Dubbing to a PC using the PC's software
programme, only the original sound (ST1) may be
imported, depending on the software programme.
