NOTES:

●When Random Assemble Editing doesn't work, press → of the DUB button, then perform Random Assemble Editing again.

●To cancel the registered scene, press CANCEL. Each time CANCEL is pressed, the latest regisered scene is erased.

●When the source tape has more than 2 identical time codes ( pg. 28), the recorder may not find the edit-in point you chose and a malfunction may occur.

●When choosing a scene, set edit-in and edit-out points so that there's a relatively large difference between them.

●If the search time for an in-point exceeds 5 minutes, the recording deck's Record-Pause mode will be cancelled and editing will not take place.

●If there are blank portions before or after the edit-in and edit- out points, a blue-backed screen may be included in the edited version.

●Since time codes register time only as accurately as seconds, the time code total time may not match the total programme time exactly.

●To quit Random Assemble Editing while it is still in progress, press R.A.EDIT again to return to the R.A.EDIT screen. Press R.A.EDIT once more to return to the normal screen.

●To use Random Assemble Editing consecutively for two or more programmes, press START for each programme.

When dubbing from another Mini DV cassette, swap the Mini DV cassettes first, and then press START.
