AUDIO DUBBING
The audio dubbing feature lets you record new audio (sound) on a previously recorded
tape without erasing the original video.
When you audio dub a tape, the previous audio is erased and replaced with new sound.
NOTES:
• Sound from the built-in microphone and the AUDIO jack can be dubbed.
• When dubbing audio from the built-in microphone, set "AV OUT/IN" switch to "OUT" and
do not connect the "AUDIO" jack. When dubbing audio from the "AUDIO" jack, set the
"AV OUT/IN" switch to "IN".

4. Press "DUBBING AUDIO/VIDEO" and "PLAY" buttons at the same time.
"A.DUB " appears in the viewfinder.
NOTE: If "DUBBING AUDIO/VIDEO" and "PLAY" buttons are pressed twice, audio
and video dubbing will start. In this case, press "STOP/EJECT" button to release the
dubbing mode.
