Simplified Voice-Over

This function allows you to make voice-overs and give priority to the voice-over during playback. Recording is performed on one or two channels. The channel input during recording can be mixed with the playback sound.

NOTE:

The voice-over data is written to the same card storing the play list. Thus the play list must be saved before audio recording or an error will be generated and recording cannot be performed.

The maximum recording time is 720 minutes.

The maximum number of voice-overs is 99.

Check the remaining time on the P2 card before saving the play list. Otherwise there may not be enough time for the voice-over recording. When the P2 becomes FULL, an error occurs and recording cannot be started.

Simplified voice over is not available when 24 or 60-24 is selected in setup menu No. 25 SYSTEM FREQ.

Preparing for Voice-Over

Make the required settings in the related setup menu prior to a voice over recording.

Selecting a Track for Recording

Select the voice-over track from one of the following tracks in setup menu No. 792 (A DUB CH):

CH1, CH2, CH3, CH4, CH1+2, CH3+4

NOTE:

Recording tracks can be selected when the play list does not contain any voice-overs. When it does contain a voice-over, subsequent voice-overs use the same recording track.

Selecting Method for Connecting Audio IN and OUT Points

In setup menu No. 796 (A DUB FADE), select whether the voice-over should be blended with the original audio using cut or V-fade.

This setting is reflected to play list playback and edit copy. Refer to “Playing Back the Play List” (page 101).

Refer to “Creating New Clips From the Play List (Edit Copy)” (page 102).

NOTE:

When an audio is overwritten and added using cut to an audio added by V-fade, V-fade will be applied to the connecting point.

Mixing Playback Sound

You can select whether to mix the playback sound during a voice-over in setup menu No. 793 (A DUB PB MIX).

When mixing is selected, select the channels to mix in setup subscreen.

The playback sound of the selected channels is mixed with A DUB CH and recorded.

When there are multiple A DUB CH, make separate settings for each.

NOTE:

In play list playback, playback level is set to UNITY fixed, or registered recording level and cannot be changed. However, EE audio while the A.DUB button is pressed and during A.DUB can be adjusted.

The playback level of short playback of voice-overs from still status cannot be changed.
