<Notes>

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. The tape speed figures given above in parentheses apply

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

when DV format tapes are used.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. PCM AUDIO complies with the AUDIO MONITOR SELECT

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SW setting and is set to CH1, CH2 or MIX (CH1+CH2).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3. “QUICK PCM AUDIO” is a playback mode in which priority is

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

given to aligning the video and audio phases during slow-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

motion playback. In this mode, the sound at 1× normal

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

speed is played back one frame at a time each time the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

video frame is updated.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(During normal PCM AUDIO slow-motion playback, the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

sound is stretched out so that it is played back after the
