Clip Thumbnail Display on the 9-Inch Monitor

The AJ-HPM110's built-in 9-inch LCD monitor not only serves as a playback monitor, it also displays clips in a thumbnail list. You can select a clip and play it back immediately. Each thumbnail is indicated with a text memo and a symbol that shows the presence or absence of a shot marker. You

can also set the AJ-HPM110 to display only the clips you select in the thumbnail list. The crosshair cursor buttons or jog dial let you select a thumbnail quickly and easily.

Clip Management

You can delete, copy or merge clips, or add a shot marker and text memo. Details of each clip can be viewed in a properties window.

Playlist Allows VTR-Like Nonlinear Editing

The P2 card enables a highly advanced playlist function. You can mark up to 100 events using In and Out points and play the events in any order. Thanks to the P2 card's unique high-speed random access capability, you get seamless, continuous, on-the- spot playback with no time lag or other disruptions between cuts

(clips)**. Edit the recordings and use the results in on-air broadcasts — a quick, easy solution for breaking news reporting and similar "when it counts" tasks. You can mark In and Out points, cue, review, trim and perform other tasks in almost the same way as you would with a conventional editing controller. The display of playlist and event properties lets you handle production and correction tasks intuitively and accurately.

Overwrite (Insert) Editing with the Playlist

Source materials from another clip can be inserted into the playlist. This gives you the same result as insert editing with a VTR. The AJ-HPM110 lets you insert edit in three modes: video, audio and both.

Audio Split/Audio Dubbing with the Playlist

The AJ-HPM110's audio split* feature makes it possible, using the playlist, to move the audio In point forward or backward relative to the video In point. Also, one or two additional audio channels can be recorded onto a recorded clip. This lets you connect a microphone for voiceovers. The input audio can be mixed with the playback sound.

Creating New Clips From the Playlist (Editcopy function)

Playlists can be saved as files and reused. The edit/copy function can also write out the result of playlist playback as a separate clip. The AJ-HPM110 lets you edit and copy image data over multiple P2 cards for extended HD editing.

Jog/Shuttle Dial and Audio Fader

*Only video and audio from another clip on a P2 card mounted in the card slot of the same AJ-HPM110 can be inserted. Insert editing is not possible between two connected units.

Like a broadcast editor, the AJ-HPM110 is equipped with a jog & shuttle dial. You can shuttle search at 100x normal speed in forward or reverse and jog search within a range of -1x to +1x speed. Audio can be monitored up to 10x speed. Equipped with large audio fader levers,

the AJ-HPM110 also can be used as an audio mixer.
