DV Input
• Default setting: Stereo1
You need to set this if you have a camcorder using 32kHz/
12-bit sound connected to the front panel DV IN/OUT jack.
Some digital camcorders have two stereo tracks for
audio. One is recorded at the time of shooting; the other
is for overdubbing after shooting.
On the Stereo1 setting, the sound that was recorded
while shooting is used. On the Stereo2 setting, the
overdubbed sound is used. You can also choose a Mix
setting of 25%, 50% or 75% for the Stereo 1 with a
corresponding Stereo 2 setting of 75%, 50% or 25%.
Input Level (L1 / L2 / L3)
• Default setting: 0dB
You can adjust the gain of the audio from each external
input individually, from –6dB to +6dB in steps of 3 dB to
optimize the recorded audio level.
Audio Out settings
Digital Out
• Default setting: On
If at any time you need to switch off the digital audio
output, set this to Off, otherwise leave it On.
Note
• When set to Off, all the other Audio Out settings are
grayed out and can’t be set.
Dolby Digital Out
You only need to make this setting if you connected this
recorder to an AV amp/receiver (or other component) using
the digital output.
• Default setting: Dolby Digital
If your AV amp/receiver (or other connected component)
is Dolby Digital compatible, set to Dolby Digital,
otherwise set to Dolby Digital PCM. Check the
manual that came with the connected component if
you’re unsure whether it is Dolby Digital compatible.
DTS Out
You only need to make this setting if you connected this
recorder to an AV amp/receiver (or other component) using
the digital output.
• Default setting: On
If your AV amp/receiver (or other connected component)
has a built-in DTS decoder, set to On, otherwise set to
Off. Check the manual that came with the connected
component if you’re unsure whether it is DTS
compatible.
Important
• If you set to On with a non-DTS compatible amp/
receiver, noise will be output when you play a DTS
disc.
• When set to On, there is no analog audio output
when playing a DTS DVD-Video disc.
• When playing a DTS audio CD (even when DTS Out
is Off), noise is output from the analog outputs. Do
not play this through your amplifier and speakers.
