Voice-over operations (1)

Take the steps below to add sound (audio dubbing, voice-over) while watching the pictures played back. The sound to be recorded is first stored in the memory and then recorded on the tape by the steps described below so that the recording can be performed at the precise time at the location where the sound is to be added.

1

Select “INT_V0” as the setup menu item No.317

 

(AUD MEM MODE) setting.

 

“m” now appears on the superimposed display

 

of VTR2. (See page 85)

2

Select the channel (CH1, CH2) for recording the

 

sound with the setup menu item No.318 (AUD

 

MEM CH) setting.

3

Connect the audio signals which are to be

 

recorded.

 

When connecting a microphone, connect it to

 

CH2 on the VTR2 side (the second AUDIO IN

 

connector from the left as seen from the rear

 

panel).

4

Set the VTR2 AUDIO INPUT selector switch

 

(ANALOG/SDI/INT) for the recording channel to

 

the ANALOG position.

5

Set the VTR2 AUDIO INPUT selector switch

 

(channel selector) for the recording channel to

 

the audio signal input channel.

6

Insert the voice-over cassette tape into VTR2.

7

Press the insert button (A1, A2) for the channel

 

on which the sound is to be recorded to turn on

its lamp.

(The unit’s internal memory can store about 20 seconds of sound.)

<Note>

Sound can be recorded on CH1 and CH2 channels only.

8

Press the PLAY button to play back the tape in

 

VTR2.

9

Check the pictures while watching the VTR2

monitor screen, and press the MARK IN button when the tape reaches the voice-over position (IN point).

10 Input the sound to be recorded (from the microphone, etc.) while the unit remains in the PLAY mode.

11 Press the MARK OUT button at the OUT point. The sound which was input from the IN point to the OUT point is now stored in the internal memory.

Twenty seconds after this information is written into the internal memory, “o” appears on the superimposed display to indicate that the memory is now full. (See page 85)

12 Press the AUTO EDIT button to execute editing. The sound stored in the memory is now recorded on the tape.
