DUPLICATE PLUS is a dubbing function which duplicates the tape with time codes through an i.LINK connection. By using the DUPLICATE button, you can easily make a work tape which contains the exact same time code that the original source tape contains. DUPLICATE PLUS is applicable with HDV1080, DVCAM, and DV (SP) formats. Also, at the tape end or when the tape has been put in PAUSE mode by operating the STOP button, you can change the tape of
both the player and recorder during duplication (page 61).
Therefore, multiple tapes can be duplicated from multiple resource tapes, continuously.
(The unit does not support the cassette memory function.)

Setting DUPLICATE PLUS mode
Set [DUPLICATE PLUS] mode in the [VTR SET] menu (page 77).
Setting the duplicating format
Select the duplicating format with [FORMAT SEL] in the [DUPLICATE PLUS] mode. The unit functions the same as when it has detected a blank portion on a tape,
if the unit detects a format other than the selected format (page 61).
ALL : Duplicates the original tape on the recorder.
HDV1080: The player automatically detects only 1080 HDV (both interlaced and progressive) and
duplicates.
HDV1080(i): The player automatically detects only
1080 interlaced HDV and duplicates. HDV1080(p): The player automatically detects only
1080 progressive HDV and duplicates. DVCAM : The player automatically detects
DVCAM format and duplicates.
DV SP : The player automatically detects DV (SP) format and duplicates.
Notes
•If the original signal is mixed with other types of signal as you transfer the image to a computer, the transfer procedures may be interrupted. When transferring an image using a tape dubbed with DUPLICATE PLUS on the unit to a computer, we recommend you duplicate it in a single format.
•When
•When the format of a tape is switched to a different format during duplication, the portion where the format is switched may be distorted.
•When [HDV1080(i)] or [HDV1080(p)] is selected in [FORMAT SEL] of [DUPLICATE PLUS], the search speed becomes the same speed as normal playback.
Setting the auto rewind function
Set [AUTO REW] in [DUPLICATE PLUS] to select whether you want to use the auto rewind function.
ON : Rewinds the tape on both the player and the recorder, and starts duplication. Also, when you continue to duplicate a resource tape from multiple tapes, the new work tape will be rewound automatically and then duplication starts.
OFF : Starts duplicating from the current portion of the tape.
Note
Depending on the specification of the player, you may not search the beginning of a tape. In this case, set [AUTO REW] to [OFF].
Operating DUPLICATE PLUS
The duplicating procedure differs depending on the [DUPLICATE PLUS] settings.
Note
If you operate the player while duplicating, the duplicate process may be interrupted and the tape may not be correctly duplicated. Do not operate the player while duplicating.
