Videomaker Magazine, March 1995, has an article on audio in which the author says you can dub sound on the tape while preserving the sound already there. You feed the hi-fi stereo from the already recorded tape in the record VCR into your audio mixer, put other sounds (a CD or audio cassette, for example) also into the mixer, and then output to the recording VCR into the linear input. My problem is I am brand new to the AG 1970 and can't figure out how to output the hi-fi stereo and select linear audio input. The user's manual is fine if you want to know how to set the clock, but worthless if you want to know any of this technical stuff. Can anybody help me with this?

The user's manual is fine if you want to know how to set the clock, but worthless if you want to know any of this technical stuff.< See if I can give you a hand on this (I don't have a 1970–nertz!<g>– but I've used "mixing" edit VCRs before)… Try setting your audio output to hi-fi, then select audio dub (which dubs ONLY the linear track). When you play your tape to mix audio, you SHOULD be able to dub over the old linear track that way. When you play back your tape to hear the new audio, make sure your VCR's set to linear audio ONLY (you may have already done it, and just aren't hearing it because you're playing back in hi-fi). Hope this helps (and isn't too confusing <g>), Tim Liebe
