5-4-6 Performing Program Play

Overview
When using HDCAM-SR tapes, you can play them over
the range ±5.0% of normal speed. This is called program
play.
During program play you can correct the pitch of audio
signals.
Note
The program play function is available only when all of the
following conditions are met.
• Combination of SRW-5000/5500 and HKSR-5001 serial
numbers:
SRW-5000/5500: Serial No. 12001 or higher
HKSR-5001: Serial No. 11001 or higher
• Tape format: HDCAM-SR
• System frequency: 4:2:2/1080/59.94i or 720/59.94P. No
audio is output when playing tapes recorded at other
system frequencies.
• Note about editing: Always use time code to check and
set edit points when editing while performing program
play on the player. Precise editing operations cannot be
guaranteed if you use CTL signals.

About audio pitch correction
Some menu settings are required to enable audio pitch
correction during program play.
When audio pitch correction is enabled, it is also carried
out at times other than during program play, whenever an
HDCAM-SR tape is played that has a system setting
(frame frequency) that is different from the current system
setting. However, the difference between system settings
must be within ±5%, as shown below.
23.98 frames y 24 frames
23.98/24 frames y 25 frames
29.97 frames y 30 frames
To enable pitch correction
Set VTR SETUP menu item 816 "PITCH
CORRECTION" to "on".
Pitch correction group settings
You can use VTR SETUP menu item 817 "PITCH
CORRECTION GROUP select" to assign the 12 audio
channels to groups.
You can assign up to 6 channels to 1 group. Pitch
correction is performed at the same time for all channels in
a group, so phase differences do not arise. However, phase
differences may arise between different groups.
Pitch correction detection mode settings
You can use VTR SETUP menu item 818 "PITCH
CORRECTION DETECT MODE select" to specify the
detection mode for each pitch correction group.
Mode1: Search for zero-cross points in the audio data, and
connect the zero-cross points.
