1 Select F6 (R/P SEL) in function menu page P06: EDIT to select the player or recorder to be set the edit points.

Each time F6 (R/P SEL) is selected, the target VTR changes.

2 Rotate the search dial in jog or shuttle mode, and position the tape at the required edit point.

For details of playback in jog or shuttle mode, see the sections“Playback in jog mode” (page 37) and “Playback in shuttle mode” (page 37).

3 At the point at which you want to set the edit IN or OUT point, hold down the SHIFT/ENTRY button and select F9 (IN) or F10 (OUT) in function menu page P06: EDIT.

When the IN point or OUT point is set, the F9 (IN) or F10 (OUT) is lit.

4 Repeat steps 1 to 3 until all the necessary edit points are set.

When the edit IN points are set on both the recorder and player, F2 (PREVIEW) and F1 (AUTOEDIT) flash, and preview or editing operation becomes possible.

To set the edit point automatically

Editing requires four edit points: each pair of IN and OUT points on both the recorder and player. Once any three of these points are defined, the last point is set automatically. For example, if you set the recorder IN and OUT points, and the player IN point, the player OUT point is set automatically.

Note

In the following cases, F7 to F10 (IN, OUT, AUD IN and AUD OUT) begin to flash and you cannot carry out automatic editing.

The OUT point is before the IN point.

All four of the recorder IN and OUT points and the player IN and OUT points have been set.

Use the ALT/DELETE button to delete a unnecessary edit point, or set the edit points correctly.

For details of deleting edit points, see the section “To delete an edit point” (page 46).

To set split edit points

In split editing, you can set the edit points for audio and video independently. Set the audio edit points using F7 (AUD IN) and F8 (AUD OUT) in function menu page P06: EDIT, and set the video edit points using F9 (IN) and F10 (OUT).

Note that split editing is only possible when the recording mode is insert editing.
