Using Synchro Edit

Use synchro edit to record only segments of a previously recorded tape when dubbing
from the camera/recorder to a VCR. This requires an optional synchro edit cord. The
Hitachi VM-E54A uses a flying erase head to eliminate glitches or rainbow noise that
sometimes occurs between edits. Your VCR must have the EDIT IN jack to use the
synchro edit.
