When separated from the
camera, the SRW-1 VTR is
connected to the SRPC Sony HD
Video Processor box
(affectionately known as the
“toaster”) that sits below it.
This configuration can be used to
record, playback or make
“clones” on to another HD CAM
SR VTR or down-converted dubs
on to a SD (standard definition)
VTR.
The SRPC powers the SRW-1 and provides additional inputs and
outputs including:
- 12 Volt DC input
- AES/EBU digital audio
- 4:2:2 HD SDI
- 4:4:4 dual link HD SDI
- down-converted SDI output with option for “burnt-in” Time Code
See
chapter 21 for more details
At present, the SRW-1 will not record variable speed correctly when
separated from the Genesis camera.
Note that the SRW-5000 VTR does not playback HQ, but only SQ.
So you must use either the SRW-1 & SRPC (VTR & Toaster)
configuration, or the Sony SRW-5800 VTR, to playback recordings
made in HQ mode.
