possible.
To set the edit point automatically
Editing requires four edit points: each pair of IN and OUT
points on both the recorder and player. Once any three of
these points are defined, the last point is set automatically.
For example, if you set the recorder IN and OUT points,
and the player IN point, the player OUT point is set
automatically.
In the following cases, F7 to F10 (IN, OUT, AUD IN and
AUD OUT) begin to flash and you cannot carry out
automatic editing.
• The OUT point is before the IN point.
• All four of the recorder IN and OUT points and the
player IN and OUT points have been set.
Use the ALT/DELETE button to delete a unnecessary edit
point, or set the edit points correctly.
For details of deleting edit points, see the section “To
delete an edit point” (page 46).
To set split edit points
In split editing, you can set the edit points for audio and
video independently. Set the audio edit points using F7
(AUD IN) and F8 (AUD OUT) in function menu page P06:
EDIT, and set the video edit points using F9 (IN) and F10
(OUT).
Note that split editing is only possible when the recording
mode is insert editing.
