Insert-edit functions

With the insert-edit functions, it is possible to conven-
iently insert other picture and/or sound recordings into
existing recordings.
Connect the two units with the corresponding synchro-
edit cable (socket D or / on
your video recorder).
Connect the video/audio source to the input sockets
© ("E3") or † ("E4") and ª + º (audio input
for "E3" and "E4") on the video recorder. The sockets
are to be found behind the flap at the front of the recor-
der.
If your camcorder is equipped with a 2.5 mm ø control
socket (LANC control) or a 5-pin MEI-socket, you have
the choice between the following insert-edit methods:
•
Method 1 "INSERT VCR": you mark on the cassette
in the video recorder the tape position where the
"new" recording is to end.
•
Method 2 "INSERT CC": you mark on the cassette
in the camcorder the beginning and the end of a
"scene" (tape position) you wish to insert into an
existing recording.
However, this works only if the camcorder is equip-
ped with a 2.5 mm ø control socket (LANC control)
or a 5-pin MEI-socket.
You have the choice between three insert-edit
functions:
•
"INSERT DUBBING": the picture, the hifi sound
(helical track), and the mono sound (longitudinal
track) are newly recorded.
•
"INSERT VIDEO": the picture and the hifi sound
(helical track) are newly recorded, the mono sound
(longitudinal track) is maintained.
•
"INSERT COPY": The picture is newly recorded. The
mono sound (longitudinal track) is retained and
transferred onto the hifi track (helical track).
Note:
* The video recorder will always use that insert
function you have selected in the paragraph
"Adjusting the video recorder to the camcorder".

corder.
