When two VTRs are used to perform the audio split editing operations, there will be a total of 8 edit points: the video IN and OUT points for the player, the video IN and OUT points for the recorder, the audio IN and OUT points for the player, and the audio IN and OUT points for the recorder.

When five of the eight edit points are registered, the remaining three points are automatically calculated so only five of the edit points need to be registered.

$ When a VTR not equipped with the split editing function is used as the player

When a VTR that cannot set the video and audio edit points independently is used as the player, split editing is still possible by setting the audio IN point and OUT point in the recorder and setting the data of three points as the video edit points.

<Note>

If, during audio split editing, the video OUT point (or audio OUT point) only is registered without the audio OUT (or video OUT point) having been registered and automatic editing is then executed, either the audio OUT point (or video OUT point) will be registered or editing will continue until the STOP button is pressed to suspend the editing operation.
