SONY VO-2850 Editing System
The SONY VO-2850 Videocassette Editing System con-
sists of two U-Matic Videocassette Mastering Recorder/Edi-
tors, and an Editing Remote Control Unit. Electronic edit-
ing of a tape on the first machine is accomplished by trans-
ferring the desired scenes one at a time to a tape on the sec-
ond machine. Two Trinitron monitors are used to display
the last frame of the previous shot and allow you to single-
frame or slow motion to select the first frame of the next
shot. The remote controller then starts both recorders
si
multaneously and makes the transfer.
You can start by buying just one VO-2850 Mastering Re-
corder and Editor. Later add a second Mastering Recorder/
Editor and the Remote Editing Controller.
The VO-2850 System has rotary erase heads, capstan servo
control, vertical interval switcher for clean edits without pic-
ture roll, separately editable video and two (stereo) audio
channels, still frame, and slow motion. Horizontal resolu-
tion 240 lines, Signal/Noise ratio, (audio and video) 45dB.

There are many videocassette system accessories available. We
can list only a few of them here. Send for a complete SONY

lighting, and many other accessories used for Super 8 sync
sound production are also usable for videotape productions,
and many of the SONY video accessories are directly usable
with the VP-X videoplayers — e.g., external sync generators,
distribution amplifiers, phase shifters, and special effects
generators.
