Audio, video, and CTL signals need to be recorded in
advance in the insert editing section on the tape. If the
section in which these signals are not recorded correctly is
used for insert editing, noise or breakup can occur in the
audio and video when that section is played back.

To start automatic editing

When you finish setting the edit points, with F1
(AUTOEDIT) flashing, select F1.
F1 changes from flashing to continuously lit, and the
automatic editing begins.
At the end of the automatic editing, F1 goes off.

To change the OUT point during automatic
editing
After starting the automatic editing, hold down the SHIFT/
ENTRY button and select F10 (OUT) before the preset
OUT point. The position where F10 was selected becomes
a new edit OUT point, and editing ends.

To abandon automatic editing
Press the STOP button.
The automatic editing before reaching the OUT point is
interruped. At the same time, F2 (PREVIEW) and F1
(AUTOEDIT) start flashing, and the unit returns to the
state before the editing was started.
The edit IN and OUT points are preserved so that you can
carry out a preview or automatic editing operation again by
holding down the SHIFT/ENTRY button and selecting F2
or F1.

To review the editing results
After editing, you can check the editing results on the
monitor.
To carry out a review, hold down the SHIFT/ENTRY
button and select F3 (REVIEW) before you set any new
edit point or modify any existing edit point.
The F3 lights, and the review is carried out.
At the end of the review the F3 goes off, and the tape
returns to the OUT point and stops.

After automatic editing, to correct the edit points
and reexecute the edit
Hold down the ALT/DELETE button and select F1
(AUTOEDIT) to recall the edit points. After adjusting the
edit points select F1 to carry out the edit again.

For details of how to correct edit points, see Section
“5-1-5 Modifying and Deleting Edit Points” (page 46)
