Devices
ESBK-7045 Disk Unit
This is a hard disk drive for storage of video and audio
signals. The fast random access of the hard disk means
that any part of the data can be accessed quickly.
Unlike clips stored on tape, clips stored on a disk unit
can be cued up instantly. In high-quality mode, one
disk unit can store up to one hour of video. Up to four
disk units can be connected to the EditStation.
ESBK-7041 Disk Recorder Board
This board installs in a slot on the motherboard of the
EditStation. It controls the ESBK-7045 Disk Unit and
enables non-linear editing using data on the disk unit.
ESBK-7011 Control Panel
This is a control panel for the EditStation featuring a
jog/shuttle dial, a fader lever, adjustment knobs,
MARK IN and MARK OUT buttons, and other editing
controls. Use of the control panel makes it easy to
control tape transport, adjust edit points, and manually
specify the timing of edit transitions.
