There are the following VIDEO IN connectors for
inputting analog video signals:
• Y/CPST (loop-through connectors)
• R Y/C
• B Y
The signals you can connect to these connectors depend on
the selection made with the VIDEO button in the video/
audio input selection section. The selection is indicated by
the VIDEO indicators in the INPUT signal display section.
The analog video signals that can be input to these
connectors are as follows.
When COMPOSITE is selected:
Connectors Input signals
Y/CPST Composite signal
R Y/C — (not usable)
B Y — (not usable)
The two Y/CPST connectors are loop-through
connectors. When using the signal input to the left Y/
CPST connector as a reference video signal, for
example, you can bridge-connect the signal to other
equipment via the right Y/CPST connector (marked
). When no connection is made to the right Y/
CPST connector, the left Y/CPST connector is
terminated with an impedance of 75
When S VIDEO is selected:

Use these connectors to input analog audio signals from an
external video cassette player or other audio equipment.
The signals input to these connectors are recorded on the
audio channels determined by the current audio recording
mode, as follows.
When in 2 CH (48 kHz) mode:
Input Audio channels on which input
connectors signals are recorded
AUDIO IN 1/3 Audio channel 1
AUDIO IN 2/4 Audio channel 2
When in 4 CH (32 kHz) mode:
Input Audio channels on which input
connectors signals are recorded
AUDIO IN 1/3 Audio channels 1 and 3
AUDIO IN 2/4 Audio channels 2 and 4
You can switch the audio recording mode with the REC
MODE menu item (see page 73). The selection is indicated
by the REC MODE display on the front panel.
