reproduce the sounds separately.

performed. If you perform audio dubbing on a recording done in [16bit]
Mode, the original sound will be erased. If you want to
preserve the original sound, be sure to select [t2bit] Mode at
the time of recording.

back a Cassette with no audio dubbing, [AUDIO] must be
set to [ST1].
