If you're doing RCA from the camera to the VCR, then your audio and video
are separate. Video is the yellow cable. You'll have a mono or stereo output
from your soundboard that is probably already used to pipe audio into a
computer for recording. Just split that to the red and white cables for
audio. Then you can output for the coax cable on the VCR to the TV. Distance
could be an issue. You may need a signal booster to push the video signal
past a certain distance.
