Tip:
To cycle through all the
choices for an item, you may
need to press SELECT more
than once.
While in the VHS menu, you
can press MENU to advance to
the AMERICHROME COPY
MENU, or QUIT to exit the
menu system. The Dual-Deck
VCR will remember your
new settings.
Use the VHS Menu to change settings related to your VHS
tape: Record Speed, Record Source, Hi-Fi or Linear Audio,
and Tape Length.
1. Press
1
or
SELECT
to set desired RECORD SPEED. For a
T-120 tape, SP records for two hours, LP for four hours,
and SLP for six hours. SP gives you the highest quality.
2. Press 2 or use the arrow keys to move to RECORD
SOURCE. Press
SELECT
to set desired RECORD SOURCE.
AUTO means that when you press the REC key, the VHS
deck will automatically record whatever you are watch-
ing on the TV, whether it is a TV channel, the 8mm deck,
or a Line input. Set RECORD SOURCE to 8mm if you
only want to record from the 8mm deck; to TUNER if
you want to record a TV or cable channel, and LINE1 or
LINE2 if you want to record from other video equipment
which you have connected to the LINE 1 or 2 VIDEO and
AUDIO IN connections (see the Connecting Other Video
Equipment section in this Guide).
3. Press
3
or use the arrow keys to move to HIFI AUDIO.
Press
SELECT
to set HIFI AUDIO to ON if you want to
hear the Hi-Fi audio track on your tape, and to OFF if
you want to hear only the linear audio track (see the
8mm and VHS Formats section of this guide for more
information). When you dub new audio onto your VHS
tape (see Audio Dubbing in the Adding New Audio
section of this guide), the new sound is recorded onto the
linear track of the VHS tape. If you wish to hear this
new sound, you would set HIFI AUDIO to OFF.
4. Press 4 or use the arrow keys to move to TAPE
LENGTH. Press
SELECT
to select T-120, T-160, or T-180,
depending on what length of VHS tape you are using.
This is important because the Tape Counter needs
to know the tape length in order to calculate the
Time Remaining.
