High-quality digital recording
The SRW-5000 uses a component system to record
video signals. An AES/EBU format with a wide
dynamic range is used for 12-channel audio recording.
A unique and powerful error correction circuit and
concealment circuit are used in digital signal
processing.
Accurate and stable video signal output is made
possible by setting and adjusting the internal digital
video processor.

Chapter 1 Overview
Noiseless playback with DT heads
When using the HDCAM-SR or HDCAM format, the
dedicated playback DT heads allow you to perform
noiseless playback in the range from –1 to +2 times
normal speed, including still-picture playback. When
using the Digital Betacam format, the playback range
is from –1 to +3. However, Digital Betacam playback
requires the HKSR-5002 (option).
Video and audio confidence heads
Video and audio (channels 1 through 12) signals can
be recorded and simultaneously played back to check
the recording.
Internal time code generator and reader
The internal time code generator allows you to record
time code (LTC or user bits) together with video and
audio signals. Time codes (LTC or user bits) can be
read during playback using the time code reader.
Computer servo system
Computer-controlled servo motors provide direct drive
for the drum, capstan, and two reels, enabling quick
and accurate tape access.
Capstan override function
You can adjust the playback speed by ±15% to ensure
synchronization between, for example, two VTRs
playing back the same program.
Independent audio level control
It is possible to adjust the recording and playback
levels either independently on each channel or
simultaneously on all 12 channels while monitoring
the peak values.

Tele-File memory label system
The SRW-5000 incorporates the Tele-File memory
label system to allow users to read, write and update
videocassette management information, log data (IN/
OUT points) and cue point data on memory labels,
providing greater efficiency in cassette management
and editing.
