settings Description of settings
PREROLL TIME [> Preroll]: Set the preroll time. The preroll time can be set in one-second increments to
between 0 and 15 seconds (0 SEC [>> 0 SEC] to 15 SEC
[>> 15 SEC]). When an editing controller such as the PVE-
500 has been connected, this setting is disabled and the
editing controller’s setting is in effect. Operations such as the
preroll time setting and the time data switching operation are
also performed on the editing controller.
Factory default setting: 5 SEC [>> 5 SEC]

following cue-up.

In an editing system including an editing controller such as
the PVE-500, adjusting this setting so that the delay before
switching to playback mode is the same on all the decks of
the editing system means that there is no longer a need to
synchronize the decks for editing, and the preroll time can
be shortened.

[>> 4 delay]: The larger the numerical value, the longer the
delay. By adjusting this setting, it is possible to reduce the
phase synchronization time and preroll time during editing.

DSR-85) or 4 FRAME DELAY [>> 4 delay] (for DSR-85P)
