Recording and Playback Chapter3

Recording

This section describes the necessary settings and operations to perform recording on this unit.

For details of connections and settings when using this unit as part of an editing system, see Chapter 5, “Connections and Settings for Editing” (page 55).

For details of use for dubbing through the i.LINK interface, see Chapter 6, “Using the i.LINK Connector for Dubbing and TC Insert” (page 64).

For this unit, recording in HDV or DVCAM format is recommended, but recording in DV (SP mode only) format is also possible.

Notes

When carrying out multiscene continuous recording on a DV (SP) tape using this unit with an optional remote control unit such as the DSRM-10, on rare occasions, the video may be disrupted at the IN point of the first scene or the audio may be suppressed due to a REC MODE (audio recording mode) difference between the tape and this unit.

There may also be cases in which the unit is subjected to some functional restrictions attributable to the use of the DV format.

Multiscene continuous recording is not possible for recording in HDV format.

To record an analog input signal, the option board HVBK-1505 (option) (page 10) is necessary.

For details of the relation between input signals and recording format, see “Input Signals and Recording Formats” (page 36).

Each press of this button cycles through three options: CNT, TC (timecode), and UB (user bit data). The time data type indicator for each option lights as it is selected.

When VITC is selected with the TC SELECT menu item (see page 78), the indication cycles through CNT, VITC, and VIUB.
