APPENDIX C – Dubbing SSR Footage to Sony SRW-1 

 
1.   Mount the Panavision SSR on the Panavision SSRD docking station. 
 

Mount the Sony SRW-1 on the Sony SRPC. 

 
2A. To make a 444 dub, connect Link 

A

 and 

B OUT

 on the SSRD to the 

HD SDI IN A

 and 

B

 

connectors on the Sony SRPC  

2B. To make a 422 dub, connect Link 

A OUT

 on the SSRD to 

HD SDI IN A

 connector on the 

Sony SRPC 

   
3.   On the Sony SRPC, connect 

HD SDI OUT A

 (and optionally 

B

, if in 444) to an HD monitor 

and perhaps a waveform monitor. Alternatively, you can connect the SRPC 

MONITOR OUT 

HD SDI

 to the HD monitor 

 
4.  Make sure that both the Panavision SSR and Sony SRW-1 have the correct format selected, 

either 422 or 444, for the material being copied. (See section 5.2). 

 

The SSR will not convert material if its format setting is incorrect; that is, if 422 material has 
been recorded and the SSR system is set to 444, playback will be incorrect.  

 

Select the correct frame rate on both SSR and SRW-1 (usually 23.98PsF). 

 
5.  On the Sony SRW-1 select TCG MODE as RGN, REGEN SRC as SDI-L and RUN MODE as 

RRUN. 

 
6.  On the Sony SRW-1 make sure that audio is being recorded from the HD-SDI input. 
 
7.  Cue the SSR to the first clip using 

ALT F1

.  If desired, the SSR can be rewound prior to the 

first clip by pushing 

ALT F4

, providing up to 25 seconds of color bars. This allows the SSR to 

play into the first clip with timecode running. 

 
8.  Insert a new blank HDCAM-SR tape into the SRW-1. 
 
9.  Press record on the SRW-1 and, a few seconds later, press 

F3 

play on the SSR. Monitor the 

recording until all material has been copied. Check playback on the SRW-1.
