Note

When non-audio data is being played back:

Below the input display in the audio level meter section, the DATA mark lights in white.

For the audio level meters, all regions light.

The analog audio outputs (main line/monitor/ headphones) are muted.

The audio output level can be adjusted during non-audio data playback, but output non-audio data is not affected.

5-4-6 Performing Program Play

Overview

When using HDCAM-SR tapes, you can play them over the range ±5.0% of normal speed. This is called program play.

During program play you can correct the pitch of audio signals.

Note

The program play function is available only when all of the following conditions are met.

Combination of SRW-5000/5500 and HKSR-5001 serial numbers:

SRW-5000/5500: Serial No. 12001 or higher

HKSR-5001: Serial No. 11001 or higher

Tape format: HDCAM-SR

System frequency: 4:2:2/1080/59.94i or 720/59.94P. No audio is output when playing tapes recorded at other system frequencies.

Note about editing: Always use time code to check and set edit points when editing while performing program play on the player. Precise editing operations cannot be guaranteed if you use CTL signals.

To execute program play

Proceed as follows to execute program play.

3 4

5

1 Set the same system setting for the VTR main unit and for FC output.

HD SDI signals will be output from both the HD SDI OUTPUT connectors and the FC OUT connectors.

2 Set VTR SETUP menu item 020 “P PLAY” to “on”. 3 Press the HOME button.

The HOME menu appears.

4 Turn the MULTI CONTROL knob to set the program play speed.

5 Press the PLAY button and VAR button at the same time.

Program play starts at the specified speed.

Note

During program play, HD SDI signals are output from the FC OUT connectors only. They are not output from the HD SDI OUTPUT connectors.

About audio pitch correction

Some menu settings are required to enable audio pitch correction during program play.

When audio pitch correction is enabled, it is also carried out at times other than during program play, whenever an HDCAM-SR tape is played that has a system setting (frame frequency) that is different from the current system setting. However, the difference between system settings must be within ±5%, as shown below.

23.98frames y 24 frames 23.98/24 frames y 25 frames

29.97frames y 30 frames

To enable pitch correction

Set VTR SETUP menu item 816 “PITCH

CORRECTION” to “on”.

Pitch correction group settings

You can use VTR SETUP menu item 817 “PITCH CORRECTION GROUP select” to assign the 12 audio channels to groups.

You can assign up to 6 channels to 1 group. Pitch correction is performed at the same time for all channels in a group, so phase differences do not arise. However, phase differences may arise between different groups.

Pitch correction detection mode settings You can use VTR SETUP menu item 818 “PITCH CORRECTION DETECT MODE select” to specify the detection mode for each pitch correction group.

Mode1: Search for zero-cross points in the audio data, and connect the zero-cross points.
