6-2-3 Preread Editing

Video and digital audio signals already recorded on the
tape can be used as an edit source for insert editing.
This type of editing is called preread editing, as the
VTR uses preread heads to read signals in advance.
Signals that are read in advance can be sent to mixers
for mixing, then recorded to the original channels or
other digital audio channels.
The preread editing settings are performed with the
ALT/[F1] (PRE READ) buttons in the HOME menu.
For details on the settings, see "4-2-4 Preread Settings
(PRE READ)" on page 4-17.

Notes
• In preread editing, if an input video signal is used as
the reference signal for the output video signal,
oscillation may occur because of loop connections.
To avoid this, select the external reference signal for
preread editing by setting the VTR SETUP menu
item 005 "SERVO/AV REFERENCE select" to
"external".
• When preread mode is selected, no E-E signals are
output in any operation modes to prevent oscillation
caused by loop connections. If preread mode is
deselected while a loop between the input and output
of the same channel exists, E-E signals are output and
oscillation occurs. To prevent oscillation, do the
procedure below to select PB mode for both the video
and digital audio channels before the start of preread
editing.
1
Press the ALT/[F1] (PRE READ) buttons in the
