High quality variable speed playback and
digital jog sound function
In digital BETACAM or MPEG IMX format playback,
the dedicated playback DT heads allow smooth,
noiseless playback from –1 to +3 times normal speed.
In analog Betacam compatible playback also, similar
dedicated DT heads allow noiseless playback from –1
to +3 times normal speed, and in Betacam SX format
compatible playback, special multi-head playback
technology allows noiseless playback from –1 to +2
times normal speed.
In slow motion operation, the digital jog sound
function provides the same ease of operation as a
conventional analog VTR.
Wide range of editing functions
Using this unit in combination with a recorder, you can
carry out both assemble editing and insert editing
automatically. All of the necessary editing functions
are provided to set and amend edit points, to preview
and review results of editing, and so on.
DMC playback
This allows automatic playback with a varying speed
memorized beforehand for the desired segment.
Tele-File functions
Tele-File enables data writing/reading between
cassettes with memory labels and VTRs. It increases
the efficiency of operations such as cuing up and
playback, and source data management.
Remote control function
This unit can be controlled from an external remote
controller or editor through an interface complying
with RS-422A (serial 9-pin). Since two remote control
connectors are provided, you can also control a
number of VTRs simultaneously.
Additionally, a parallel (50-pin) interface is also fitted
as standard, supporting easy external control through
the parallel interface.
Rack mounting
Using the optional RMM-131 Rack Mount Adaptor,
you can mount the unit in a standard EIA 19-inch rack.
For details of rack mounting, refer to the Installation
Manual.
