audio recording issues on a deck
Hello, I just recently purchased a used Sony BVW-35. Today, I tried to make a recording for the first time. The video came out great but the audio had some issues. It seems that after the recording had been made audio bleeding had occurred. I used a tape with previous footage on it. I got a mix of the new audio and the old audio that had been on the tape previously. Is there a setting or a knob that I have to change or is this a case of bad alignment with the recording head. It is not a huge deal because I work at a post facility and can always black and silent the audio on any used Beta-SP tapes I get.

DO NOT use cleaningtape.

It sounds to me like the previously used tape had audio on all 4 tracks. The BVW-75 has the ability to record on tracks 3 & 4 with the video signal (I forget what they call this, its been a long time) and then you can insert audio edits on 1 & 2. You we’re probably monitoring all 4 channels after you recorded your bit.

well philip
this can not be true. ch3&4 are the AFM tracks which are packed in the videotrack on the tape. these will automaticly be overwritten when a videotrack is recorded. only track 1&2 have seperate linear track’s which have seperate tracks on the tape and have seperate heads. ch 3&4 are “embedded” which is maybe a wrong word, in the video track new vide mens new audio.

thanks for all your help! i turned off all the monitoring switches on it. In any event i bought the deck for 40 dollars so i cant complain.
