NOTES:

● You can also monitor the sound when searching for scenes you want to edit in steps 6 – 7. 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 your recorder 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 recorder 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.

● During steps 6 and 7 — if you engage the Pause mode while registering edit-in and -out points in the R.A. Edit screen, the characters in the on-screen display may become distorted. This is normal.

To Make Corrections . . .

. . . during step 6 or 7, 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.

registered.

● The on-screen display remains while your recorder

searches for each scene (blinking cursor indicates

scene currently being searched for), but disappears

during actual editing.

● During scene search, the recording deck automati-

cally enters its Record-Standby mode. "SEARCHING"

appears on the screen.

● When all registered scenes have been edited, your

recorder enters the Pause mode, the recording deck

enters its Record-Standby mode, and the cursor blinks

Memory Capacity

Random Assemble Editing shares memory space with the recorder'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.

R.A. EDIT	EDIT MODE
PROGRAM FULL
TTL 0:00:00	CNT 0:00:00

	at the next available number.
10	END R.A. EDIT
	Press R.A. EDIT again, and engage the Stop mode for
	your recorder and for the recording deck.

●When all 8 programs are full, "PROGRAM FULL" appears on the R.A. EDIT screen.

●To cancel a program, see page 32
