Chapter 5, Configuring Your DigiSuite LE and VTR Settings
Configuring your VTR settings
Important
If you have the Matrox DV-1394 option, the following
procedures do not apply to the DV camcorder or deck you’ve connected to
your DV-1394 card.
The DigiSuite Configuration program lets you configure your VTR for
RS-422 device control with DigiTools and many nonlinear editing
programs, such as Adobe Premiere RT, IMC Incite, and United Media
On-Line Express.
Be aware that some editing programs provide their own RS-422 device
control, and therefore don’t use DigiSuite’s VTR settings as explained in
this section. For example, Speed Razor RT and Discreet edit* use their
own RS-422 device control rather than DigiSuite’s.
If after configuring your VTR using the DigiSuite Configuration program
you find that you have frame-accurate capture and printing to tape with
DigiTools but not with your nonlinear editing program, then your program
uses its own RS-422 device control. In this case, see your program’s
documentation for instructions on how to set up and configure your VTR
for device control.
½
To configure your VTR for DigiSuite RS-422 device control:
1
Connect your VTR as explained in the “Working with Clips Using
DigiTools” chapter of your Getting the Most from DigiSuite manual.
2
Switch your VTR to Remote mode.
3
Install DigiTools with the VTR driver or the DigiSuite Effects plug-in
for Adobe Premiere RT as explained in the previous chapter of this
manual.
4
Start the DigiSuite Configuration program, click the
Card Set 1
tab,
then the
VTR Settings
tab.
