5-3 Special Automatic Editing Methods This section describes the following automatic editing methods: • Quick editing • Continuous editing • Standalone editing • Manual editing • Preread editing 5-3-2 Continuous Editing After an automatic editing operation, the recorder automatically returns to the OUT point. For the second and subsequent editing operations, you can continue editing by simply specifying the IN and OUT points on the player.
5-3 Special Automatic Editing Methods 5-3-3 Standalone Editing This refers to editing using as the player an external device which cannot be controlled remotely through the REMOTE1-IN(9P) connector. For example, you can record a color bar signal from a signal generator in the joints between the scenes of an already completed tape. Carrying out standalone editing Set the IN point with neither the PLAYER button or RECORDER button lit.
Notes • In preread editing, if an input video signal is used as the reference signal for the output video signal, this forms a feedback loop. To prevent the occurrence of feedback, set the F2 (OUTREF)(see page 9-7) in function menu page 4 to REF, and set item 309 in the extended setup menu to AUTO1 (see page 10-15) so as to use an external reference signal.
