_Important:
tracks that your VCR is capable
of recording.
You can choose to
listen to a MONO track, both channels
of the STEREO
track,
or
either
of the channels
(left (L) and right (R)) of the stereo
track.
• Choose "L" to listen to the left channel
of a stereo
track
• Choose "R" to listen
to the right channel
of the stereo track.
• Choose "Stereo"
to listen to both stereo
channels.
• The MONO track is lower in quality
than the others,
and
the monitor
is automatically
set to "Mono" if you are
watching
a tape that was not recorded
in VHS Hi-Fi. Set
the audio monitor
to "Mono" to hear
an S.A.P. signal
recorded
on the mono track of a Hi-Fi tape (see below).
If you have your VCR connected
to a surround
sound system,
set
the audio monitor
to "Stereo."
Surround
sound
requires
both left
and right channels
to create the rear channel
effects.
If you are receiving
a stereo signal, the word "Stereo"
will display
on TV screen for 4 seconds.
If you are receiving
a S.A.P. broad-
cast, the word "SAP" will display
on TV screen tbr 4 seconds.
normalrecording (Record:)
When your VCR is recording,
it actually
record,,; the audio portion
of a program
twice: once on the stereo Hi-Fi tracks,
and once on
the mono track.
Additionally,
your VCR is able to receive Sepa-
rate Audio Program
broadcasts,
also known
as an S.A.P. broad-
cast. An S.A.P. broadcast
is an alternative
audio soundtrack
for a
program;
it is often a soundtrack
in another
language.
You can use the normal
recording
function
to record the S.A.P.
broadcast
on the mono track by choosing
"Stereo + SAP." Other-
wise, choose "Stereo."
In either
case, the maiin program
is re-
corded on the stereo
Hi-Fi track. Also, if there is no S.A.P. broad-
cast, the VCR will record the main program
on the mono track.
Be careful
if you choose S.A.P. If you play your tapes
on a non-
Hi-Fi VCR, you only hear the mono track.
You may have to watch
your favorite
show in a language
you don't _mderstand!
recording speed (RECspeed)
The recording
speed has an effect on picture
quality.
SP produces
the best picture
quality
and records
up to two hours of video on a
T-120 tape. Mitsubishi's
EP speed has only slightly poorer
qual-
ity, and records
up to six hours on a T-120.
