Automatic Editing

This section describes how to carry out automatic editing with this unit and another VCR connected to the REMOTE-IN or REMOTE-OUT connector.

Overview of Automatic Editing

With this unit, you can use the following two edit modes.

•Assemble edit mode

•Insert edit mode

(In this Operating Instructions, these two modes are also referred to simply as assemble mode and insert mode, respectively.)

Assemble edit mode

In assemble editing, you record video and audio materials in order from the start of the tape. In addition to video and audio, time code is also recorded. This edit mode is convenient when you are recording on a new tape.

Note

Before you begin assemble editing for the first time with a new tape, a video signal, e.g. a black signal, and time code must be recorded on the tape in advance of the recorder IN point for a length equal to or greater than the preroll time.
