This latest top-of-the-line Dual-
Deck™ from Sensory Science
offers all the convenience of
watching one tape while you
record or rewind another, easy
duplication of home movies at the
touch of a button, and sequential
mode for double the recording
and playback time. Plus, it’s
packed with dozens of features,
including:
Commercial Free Copying
If you love recording TV shows, you
can record all your favorite shows,
and make commercial-free copies
of them for viewing or archiving.
Save about twenty minutes out of
every sixty minutes–the average
ratio of commercial time to regular
TV programming–by using this
newest Dual-Deck feature. It’s easy.
Just place a blank tape in each
deck. Select the Automatic
Commercial Free copy feature from
the on-screen menu. Use the Timer
Record function to choose and tape
your favorite TV shows. Watch the
tape that results in Deck 2–ready for
you when you get home!
Highest Capability
Designed for the ultimate home
theater experience, this Dual-
Deck’s extra inputs and outputs
allow you to run your DVD player,
cable, regular TV and/or satellite
through the Dual-Deck because
our patented A/V switching allows
you to easily change from source
to source.
Flying Erase Heads
And other features include flying
erase heads for perfect, glitch-
free edits when copying. A rear
microphone input for easily dub-
bing an original soundtrack or
narrative right over your video
picture. And an automatic assem-
bly editor which lets you move 8
scenes at a time into any order
you like, right from the remote.
VCR Plus+ C3
That’s not all. VCR Plus+ C3sim-
plifies and automates the VCR
“programming” needed to record
shows from television, cable and
satellite. Then there’s the remote
which controls your TV and VCR,
while its jog/shuttle feature lets
you precision-search forward or
backward, at any speed you
desire, to focus on any scene for
viewing or copying. Complete
Program Record™ which senses
the end of a tape and adjusts
speed automatically so the end of
your show doesn’t get cut off.

good as any other VCR.
