Features
Good Shot marks/Shot data
During tape rewinds, this unit reads
the REC Start (RS) and Good Shot
(GS) marks recorded by Betacam SX
camcorders, and builds an index. The
index facilitates quick cue-ups of
desired marks (index search function),
for greater editing efficiency.
When shot data is recorded on the
tape, you can display the data and
make use of it for sorting shot marks.
Preread editing
You can execute preread editing,
using video or audio signals recorded
on the tape as the edit source for insert
editing. Using this function, the
previously read signals can be sent to
mixers for mixing and returned to the
original channels.
AC and DC power
This unit is equipped with V-shoe
attachment, on which BP-L60(A)/
L90(A) or BP-90(A) battery or an AC
adaptor can be mounted. The unit can
operate for about 90 minutes with two
BP-L90 batteries mounted. For AC
operation, you can connect two AC-
550/550CE adaptors or one AC-
DN2(A) adaptor.

When using the Betacam and Betacam
SP formats, only simple viewing is

Economical
• Betacam SP cassettes and
inexpensive UVW cassettes can be
used in addition to Betacam SX
cassettes.
• Special high-durability heads and
components contribute to reduced
maintenance costs.
Compact and lightweight
Even though it is a standalone editor
with two VCRs, each equipped with
an LCD monitor and a speaker, thanks
to its compact design and light weight,
you can carry it easily.
