Variable memory editing SD955B

Using the unit as a controller (deck-to-deck editing mode recorder) to control the playback speed of the VTR used as the player, editing can be performed in speed variable mode.

$ Selecting the variable memory mode

When deck-to-deck editing (either the RECORDER or PLAYER lamp lights) is to be performed, set the initial speed (–1.0 to +2.0) by turning the search dial with the SET button held down to transfer the unit to variable memory mode.

$ Releasing variable memory mode

Press the RESET button while holding down the SET button to release the unit from variable memory mode.

The unit will also be released from this mode when deck-to-deck editing operations are completed.

Variable memory editing operation can be performed according to the following procedure.

1 Select the edit mode by pressing ASSEM button or desired INSERT buttons.

2 Select VTR to be operated by pressing RECORDER or PLAYER button.

3 Register IN/OUT point by using SET button and IN/OUT buttons.

4 After selecting VTR used as the player by pressing PLAYER button, set the initial speed by the search dial while pressing SET button.

5 Simultaneously pressing both SET button and PREVIEW/REVIEW button results in automatic prerolling for the both VTRs (player and recorder), then the player VTR is operated at the set initial speed up to the IN point.

6 After passing the IN point, turn the search dial to memorize the playback speed of the VTR used as the player.

7 When the tape has passed the OUT point set by recorder, the memory of the playback speed will terminate.

8 When AUTO EDIT button is pressed, variable memory editing is executed.

Once editing has been executed, the memorized speed will be cleared. The initial speed will not be cleared however.

9 The result of editing can be checked by pressing PREVIEW/REVIEW button.

<Notes>

O The content stored in the memory will be cleared in a mode other than the variable memory mode. Also, the memory will be cleared when the power switch is turned OFF.

O Phase adjustment is not made during playback to the IN point of variable memory editing.

Therefore, depending on the VTR used as the player and its speed setting, no guarantees are made for the accuracy of the IN point.

O When variable memory editing is to be performed, keep the speed set to within the speed range for variable speed playback which can be guarantied by the VTR used as the player.
