Duplication (Generating a work tape with the same time code)
DUPLICATE PLUS is a dubbing function which
duplicates the tape with time codes through an i.LINK
connection. By using the DUPLICATE button, you can
easily make a work tape which contains the exact same
time code that the original source tape contains.
DUPLICATE PLUS is applicable with HDV1080,
DVCAM, and DV (SP) formats. Also, at the tape end or
when the tape has been put in PAUSE mode by
operating the STOP button, you can change the tape of
both the player and recorder during duplication
(page
63)
.
Therefore, multiple tapes can be duplicated from
multiple resource tapes, continuously.
(The unit does not support the cassette memory
function.)
Use this function when making a one-to-one
connection. Also, do not disconnect the i.LINK cable
during duplication.
Setting DUPLICATE PLUS mode
Set [DUPLICATE PLUS] mode in the [VTR SET]
menu.
Setting the duplicating format
Select the duplicating format with [FORMAT SEL] in
the [DUPLICATE PLUS] mode. The unit functions the
same as when it has detected a blank portion on a tape,
if the unit detects a format other than the selected format
.
ALL :
Duplicates the original tape on the recorder.
HDV1080:
The player automatically detects only
1080 HDV (both interlaced and progressive) and
duplicates.
HDV1080(i):
The player automatically detects only
1080 interlaced HDV and duplicates.
HDV1080(p):
The player automatically detects only
1080 progressive HDV and duplicates.
DVCAM :
The player automatically detects
DVCAM format and duplicates.
DV SP :
The player automatically detects DV (SP)
format and duplicates.
• If the original signal is mixed with other types of signal
as you transfer the image to a computer, the transfer
procedures may be interrupted. When transferring an
image using a tape dubbed with DUPLICATE PLUS
on the unit to a computer, we recommend you
duplicate it in a single format.
• When non-compatible HDV signals (720/60p, etc.) are
input during duplication after [FORMAT SEL] is set to
[ALL], the HDV signals are recorded as an unrecorded
portion. Also, when incompatible DV signals (DV LP
etc.,) are input, the signal is recorded in DV SP.
• When the format of a tape is switched to a different
format during duplication, the portion where the
format is switched may be distorted.
• When [HDV1080(i)] or [HDV1080(p)] is selected in
[FORMAT SEL] of [DUPLICATE PLUS], the search
speed becomes the same speed as normal playback.
Setting the auto rewind function
Set [AUTO REW] in [DUPLICATE PLUS] to select
whether you want to use the auto rewind function.
ON :
Rewinds the tape on both the player and the
recorder, and starts duplication. Also, when you
continue to duplicate a resource tape from multiple
tapes, the new work tape will be rewound
automatically and then duplication starts.
OFF :
Starts duplicating from the current portion of
the tape.
Depending on the specification of the player, you may
not search the beginning of a tape. In this case, set
[AUTO REW] to [OFF].
Operating DUPLICATE PLUS
The duplicating procedure differs depending on the
[DUPLICATE PLUS] settings.
If you operate the player while duplicating, the
duplicate process may be interrupted and the tape may
not be correctly duplicated. Do not operate the player
while duplicating.
When [AUTO REW] in [DUPLICATE PLUS] is
set to [ON]:
1
Connect the unit and the player using an i.LINK
cable (not supplied). After turning on the power of
the unit, set the INPUT SELECT switch on the unit
to HDV/DV.
