DUBBING (COPYING) A TAPE
The process of recording from one audio/video device to another is called dubbing.
You can connect the camcorder and the VCR together, then either:
• Use your camcorder to record the signal from the VCR
• Use your VCR to record the signal from the camcorder
Notes:
• Always use video quality shielded cables with phono-type connectors (such as Cat. No. 15-
1540, not supplied) to connect the camcorder’s AUDIO/VIDEO OUT/IN jacks to your VCR.
• Do not use standard audio cables for this connection.
• You can monitor the dubbing on the TV connected to your VCR. See your VCR’s owner’s
manual for more information.
If you want to use your camcorder to record from the VCR, see “Dubbing to the Camcorder” on Page
27. If you want to use your VCR to record from the camcorder, see “Dubbing from the Camcorder”
on Page 28.
Dubbing to the Camcorder
Follow these steps to connect the camcorder to the VCR and copy a tape from the VCR to the cam-
corder.
Note: You can also use this procedure to record broadcasts from your cable box, satellite receiver,
or other audio/video source. Simply connect the camcorder’s
AUDIO and VIDEO jacks to the output
jacks on the audio/video source (instead of the VCR) in Step 3.
