To prevent this, set OUT REF on the HOME page of the function menu to "REF" (see page 46). This selects use of an external reference signal during preread editing. • When preread mode is selected, no E-E video is output, regardless of the editing mode of this unit. This is to prevent feedback due to loop connections. However, feedback can occur when E-E video is output after preread editing ends and PREREAD is set to "OFF", if input and output are still connected on the same channel. To prevent feedback, select PB (playback) signals for all video and audio signals and all editing modes before starting preread editing. Do this by selecting "PB" in step 1 of the following procedure. 1 Set PB/EE on page P5 OTHER of the function menu to "PB". 2 Set PREREAD on page P5 OTHER of the function menu to "ON" (see page 48). 58 Linear Editing

Chapter 4
Recording, Playback and Copying
Editing operations
When the IN and OUT points are not set in the same clip,
insert editing is performed only for the clip containing
the IN point.
If the OUT point is set within the final clip, in assemble
editing the length of the clip does not change.
Carrying out clip editing
To carry out clip editing, use an RM-280 or similar editing
controller.
Requirements for use of editing controllers
For details of how to set edit points and carry out editing,
refer to the operation manual for the editing controller.
Compared to linear editing on VTRs, a longer time is
required for processing at the end of an edit (from 4 to 5
seconds are required for completion of the edit after
passing the OUT point).
Essence marks recorded by clip editing
“CUT” is recorded as an essence mark at the IN and OUT
points of video insert editing, and at the IN point of
assemble editing.
Preread editing
Video and digital audio signals already recorded on the
disc can be used as an edit source for insert editing. This
type of editing is called “preread editing”.
The signals read out can be send to a mixer for mixing, and
can be recorded either on the original channels or on other
digital audio channels.
For preread editing, set “PREREAD” on page P5 OTHER
of the function menu to ON
(see page 48)
.
In preread editing, an I/O feedback loop may occur if an
input video signal is used as the reference signal. To
prevent this, set OUT REF on the HOME page of the
function menu to “REF”
(see page 46)
. This selects use
of an external reference signal during preread editing.
When preread mode is selected, no E-E video is output,
regardless of the editing mode of this unit. This is to
prevent feedback due to loop connections.
However, feedback can occur when E-E video is output
after preread editing ends and PREREAD is set to
“OFF”, if input and output are still connected on the
same channel.
To prevent feedback, select PB (playback) signals for all
video and audio signals and all editing modes before
starting preread editing. Do this by selecting “PB” in
step
1
of the following procedure.
1
Set PB/EE on page P5 OTHER of the function menu
to “PB”.
2
Set PREREAD on page P5 OTHER of the function
menu to “ON”
(see page 48)
.
