Chapter 3 Using the Unit as a Player in an Editing System
When using two or more players, as in an A/B roll editing system, phase
synchronization of the signals (i.e. system sync) is necessary and for
composite signals only, the subcarrier phase must also be in sync. If not,
picture instabilities or color break-up may occur at edit points.
After configuring the editing system, use a vectorscope to adjust the sync
and subcarrier phase of the recorder and players. Subcarrier phase
adjustment is necessary when using composite signals or Y/C signals.
