Dynamic Motion Control (DMC)
Playback
The HDW-D1800 and HDW-1800 recorders
also provide DMC playback capability, which
memorises the tape speed trajectory over the
DT (Dynamic Tracking) speed range.
Pre-read Editing
Pre-read editing became an instant hit when it
first appeared on Digital VTRs over 15 years
ago. HDW-1800 Series recorders are equipped
with advanced playback heads to enable
pre-read editing. Captions can be added using
a single VTR, A/B-roll editing can be performed
with two VTRs and audio crossfades can be
added for smooth audio transitions.

with the following interfaces:
■ HD-SDI input and output

Easy Setup Using "Memory
Stick" Media
Users can store and recall VTR setup
parameters onto optional Memory Stick
media, enabling quick and consistent setup
of multiple VTRs.
Metadata Recording
The HDW-D1800 and HDW-1800 can record
metadata including UMID (Unique Material
IDentifier) and shot marks, which are used
for quick cue-up to scenes of interest.
This metadata capability improves overall
efficiency across the production process.
Unrivalled Heritage in Advanced
Metal Tape Technology
Sony HDCAM tape has been developed
to offer optimum record and playback
performance across the full range of HDCAM
recorders and players.
Building on an unrivalled heritage for Metal
Tape design, including two Emmy
(Metal Broadcasting Tape Technology in
1990 and Digital Betacam Metal Tape
Technology in 1995), HDCAM tapes provide
high density recording and a duration of up
to 155* minutes.
* When recording at 24PsF or 23.98PsF onto a large cassette.
