Assembling
For the best results, the source cassette from which you are recording should
already be playing back when you start recording.
Should you wish to assemble your own film, from camcorder footage for
example, use the assembly technique for smooth edit points:
◆
Move the tape to the
position at which the new
scene is to be added using
the play functions (pages
8/9).
◆
Wind back slightly before
the edit point and put the
machine into pause using the
button (do not press
STOP!).
◆ Now go directly into record.
