a consumer MiniDV VCR, the sound level may be
low.

Audio dubbing
Signals can only be recorded on CH3 and CH4.
1 Set the No. 245 <SAMPLING RATE> menu switch to
“32K”.
Set the video input to a position other than “DV IN”.
(Audio dubbing is not possible with digital audio
input.)
੬ See “Recording preparation” on page 26.
2 Press the [PLAY] button to play back the tape.
3 Press the [PAUSE] button at the position from which
you want to start recording audio.
While holding the [PAUSE] button, press the
[A.DUB] button.
The Audio Dubbing Pause mode cannot be engaged
unless the VCR is in the Stop mode. First engage the
Stop mode. Then, while holding down the [PAUSE]
button, press the [A. DUB] button.
• Audio dubbing
If audio dubbing is disabled for any reason — for
example, if a section of tape recorded using 48 kHz
sampling is backspaced in the Pause mode — the “Adb
inh” indication is shown and the VCR enters the Stop
mode.
4 Adjust the audio recording level with the [REC
LEVEL] control.
5 Press the [PLAY] button to start audio dubbing.
[ Audio signals are recorded on CH3 and CH4.
To stop audio dubbing temporarily, press the [PAUSE]
button.
6 To end audio dubbing, press the [STOP] button.
• Audio dubbing is not possible on tapes recorded with
48 kHz sampling frequency.
• If audio dubbing is performed repeatedly on a short
section of the tape, there may be some noise when
this section is played back.
• For audio dubbing, use a tape recorded with this unit.
If another tape is used, first dub it to a tape on this
unit. When audio is dubbed on a tape recorded on
another VCR (including another BR-DV600UA/EA),
sound and picture may be distorted.
• During audio dubbing, noise might be visible on the
playback picture. But it is not a trouble of
BR-DV600UA/EA. Audio dubbing itself is proceeded
normally.
• It is not possible to use the audio dubbing function to
record the CH1/2 playback signal on CH3/4 (sound-
on-sound).

Reference
Recording section on the tape
In the MiniDV format, one video frame consists of 10
tracks. Each track includes recording sections for audio,
video and sub code (time code, date, time).
As shown in the diagram, the audio recording section
provides 2 channels or 4 channels depending on the
sampling rate frequency selected. In the Audio Dubbing
mode, audio signals are recorded in the CH3 and CH4
section which is created when the 32 kHz sampling
frequency is selected.
