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"
