●You can also perform an Index Search (if index marks

want, but this will result in reduced accuracy.

VCR enters the Stop mode, the recording deck enters
its Record-Standby mode, a blue background

NOTES:
●
You can also monitor the sound when searching for scenes
you want to edit in steps 7 – 8. Since you can hear the
soundtrack during selection, you can avoid abrupt or
unnatural sounding scene-to-scene transitions.
●
When editing, there may be a discrepancy of about 2 seconds
on the source tape between the locations you chose as edit-in/-
out points and the locations the VCR recognizes as those points.
●
For any scene, the edit-out point must have a counter reading
that is at least 1 second after the corresponding edit-in point. Any
less than 1 second and the edit-out point will not be registered.
●
Since the source VCR prerolls during Random Assemble
Editing, there must be at least 15 seconds worth of recorded
material prior to any edit-in point on the source tape.
●
If the search time for an edit-in point exceeds 5 minutes, the
recording deck enters its Stop mode and editing will not take
place.
To Make Corrections . . .
. . . during step 7 or 8, you can cancel registered in and out
points by pressing CANCEL on the remote control. Each time
you press, the preceding point is erased.
●If, for example, you have registered 5 sets of in and out points
and want to reset the first set, you have to press CANCEL until
all points after the first set have been erased. Reenter them
after you've repaired the first set of points.
Memory Capacity
Random Assemble Editing shares
memory space with the VCR's
timer. If there are programs
occupied by timer-recording data,
those spaces cannot be used to
register edit-in and -out points —
meaning you won't be able to edit
8 scenes.
●When all 8 programs are full, "PROGRAM FULL" appears on
the R.A. EDIT screen.
●To cancel a program, see page 24.
