Dubbing a Video Cassette

Follow these steps to dub (copy) a video cassette.  You can use a
camcorder, satellite receiver, or other device with A/V outputs in place
of the playback VCR.

1.  Insert a pre-recorded video cassette into the playback VCR.

    Use PLAY/FAST-F/REWIND to locate the segment you wish to record, if
    necessary.

2.  Insert a blank video cassette, or one you want to record over, into
    the recording VCR's Cassette compartment.

3.  Set the recording VCR to the A/V mode.

    If you are using the Model 801 as the recording VCR, press INPUT on
    the remote control.  LINE appears on the VCR's display.

4.  Select the desired recording speed on the recording VCR.

5.  Start recording on the recording VCR.

6.  Begin playback of the tape in the playback VCR.

7.  When finished, stop both VCRs.

    Press INPUT, if necessary, to return to normal TV viewing.

NOTE:  For best results during dubbing, use the VCR's front panel controls
       whenever possible.  If you use the remote control, hold the remote
       control close to the VCR remote control receiver window.  Otherwise,
       the remote control of one VCR might affect the operation of the
       other VCR.

Monitoring Dubbing

If you are using the Model 801 as the recording VCR, follow these steps to
monitor a video cassette tape as you record.

1.  Turn on the TV connected to the Model 801

2.  Press TV/VCR on the Model 801 so VCR appears on the display.  Or, set
    your TV monitor to the video mode.

NOTE:  If you set the audio recording mode to DUAL, you can monitor the
       sound by using the OUTPUT button.  (See Audio Line-in Selection).

Audio Line-in Selection

When you record from another VCR, a laser disk player, or other source
connected to the AUDIO/VIDEO IN jacks on the rear panel, you can set the
audio recording to STEREO or DUAL.

Select DUAL when recording the main signal from the AUDIO IN L and a
different SAP signal on the AUDIO IN R jack.  For normal use, select
STEREO.

1.  Press PROG, then 3 to select the MODE SET menu.

2.  To toggle between STEREO and DUAL, press 1.

    When STEREO appears at the right side of the display, the VCR will
    record stereo audio from both (L and R) AUDIO IN jacks.

    When DUAL appears at the right side of the display, the VCR will
    record the audio from the AUDIO IN R jacks separately.

    - To hear the audio recorded the L jack, press OUTPUT until MAIN
      displays on the TV screen.

    - To hear the audio from the R jack, press OUTPUT until SUB displays
      on the TV screen.

    - To hear the audio from both AUDIO IN (L and R) jacks, press OUTPUT
