AUDIO AND YOUR VCR
HI-FI STEREO SOUND

(HiFi VCR�S ONLY)

Stereo sound is possible from this VCR if you have a stereo TV connected to the VCR with a scart lead, or audio equipment connected with audio phono leads. The VCR is normally set so that stereo sound is possible. The sound output from the VCR is controlled by the AUDIO OUT button on the remote control. If you wish to change the sound output you can use the AUDIO OUT button as follows: � � � � Press AUDIO OUT once. The LEFT audio channel will be sent to BOTH speakers. L will appear on the VCR display. Press AUDIO OUT twice. The RIGHT audio channel will be sent to BOTH speakers. R will appear on the VCR display. Press AUDIO OUT three times. The MONO track will be sent to BOTH speakers. L and R will disappear from the VCR display. Pressing AUDIO OUT a fourth time, normal Hi-Fi stereo sound will be heard. L and R will appear on the VCR display.

NICAM Hi-Fi STEREO SOUND
Your VCR can receive and record programmes broadcast in NICAM or IGR sound (the factory pre-set condition for NICAM is AUTO). NICAM or IGR sound may not be stereo, this depends on the programme being received. Audio is automatically recorded in two different ways: (i) Hi-Fi: Using specialised rotary heads, two audio signals are recorded on to the tape. These will be stereo, mono or bilingual depending on the sound being received. (ii) Normal: A mono recording is also made on the conventional analogue audio track.

NOTES:
� � � � � If the tape being played back does not carry sound recorded on Hi-Fi tracks, L and R will not appear on the display. lf the sound contains �crackling� or �popping� noises the sound quality may be improved by adjusting the tracking using CHANNEL / . If the poor quality is for a long period the VCR will automatically select the mono track and the sound will be in mono. Not all TV transmitters provide NICAM or IGR sound. In this case the VCR automatically switches to receive the mono signal. NICAM sound may not be stereo.
