HYBRID Recording

The HVR-MRC1K and HVR-DR60 provide a HYBRID recording capability by 

which images are recorded to tape and non-linear media simultaneously.

  HYBRID Media

HYBRID recording allows you to use two different types of 

recording media at one time. The tape and non-linear media 

provide backup for each other.

  HYBRID Workflow

Tape is still one of the most reliable storage media. HYBRID 

recording with the HVR-MRC1K or HVR-DR60 allows you to 

keep the master source tape in a safe place, while having 

a movie fi le for streamlined NLE work. You can have both at 

one time in a single workfl ow.

  HYBRID Format

It is possible to record video in HD and SD formats 

simultaneously. When the built-in down-converter of the 

connected HDV camcorder is active, SD images can be 

recorded on non-linear media while HD images are 

recorded to tape. 

Alternatively, you can use high-quality uncompressed 

Linear-PCM audio format data in a DV fi le instead of 

compressed audio in HDV material. It is possible to integrate 

HDV video with Linear-PCM audio on a timeline of 

HDV-compatible NLE (non-linear editing) software.
