Automatic Editing
This section describes how to carry out automatic editing with this unit and
another VCR connected to the REMOTE-IN or REMOTE-OUT connector.
Overview of Automatic Editing
With this unit, you can use the following two edit modes.
• Assemble edit mode
• Insert edit mode
(In this Operating Instructions, these two modes are also referred to simply
as assemble mode and insert mode, respectively.)
Assemble edit mode
In assemble editing, you record video and audio materials in order from
the start of the tape. In addition to video and audio, time code is also
recorded. This edit mode is convenient when you are recording on a new
tape.
Notes
• Before you begin assemble editing for the first time with a new tape, a
video signal, e.g. a black signal, and time code must be recorded on the
tape in advance of the recorder IN point for a length equal to or greater
than the preroll time.
• For DVCAM you can select one of two audio recording modes: 2-
channel /48-kHz or 4-channel/32-kHz. Before editing the audio, set
recording mode of the base tape (the edit tape) to match the audio
recording mode of this unit.
The unit is set up so that an alarm appears and editing is not possible
when an attempt is made to edit with different modes (menu item 327). If
the mode changes midway through the tape, insert editing of that section
is not possible.
