Overview

When you perform automatic editing, the recorder and player VTRs operate as shown in the figure above, to copy the video and audio signals between the IN and OUT points on the player VTR from the IN point on the recorder VTR.

Monitor output

During execution of an automatic edit, as during a preview, on a monitor connected to the recorder VTR you can monitor the following video and audio:

From the preroll point to the IN point, you can monitor the playback from the recorder VTR.

From the IN point to the OUT point, you can monitor the playback from the player VTR through the recorder in E- E mode.

From the OUT point to the postroll point, you can monitor the playback from the recorder VTR.
