86EEditingAudio DubbingOUTPUTAUDIOLRAVMICYou can add sound to the original sound on a pre-recorded tape from audioproducts (AUDIO IN) or with the internal or external microphone (MIC. IN). Theoriginal sound will not be erased. For best results, add sound to tapes that havebeen recorded with this camcorder in SP mode with 12-bit sound. If there arenon-recorded portions on the tape, or portions recorded in a mode other than SPmode, or with 16-bit or 12-bit, 4-channel sound, dubbing will stop. If your tapehasn’t been recorded in SP mode with 12-bit sound, we recommend dubbing youroriginal tape onto a blank tape using the ZR40’s analog line-in function, thendubbing audio onto the new tape. Make absolutely sure to set the audio mode ofthe new tape to 12-bit and the recording mode to SP.To connect other audio equipment:Notes:• Do not use the yellow video terminal.• The AV terminal doesn’t put out any video, so connect the S-video terminalsand check your TV, or check the LCD or the viewfinder as you add new sound.Always check the new sound with the speaker.To connect an external microphone:STV-250NStereo Video Cable An audio device(i. e.
