AUDIO IN SET UP menu
F11 (RATE CON) key
Operation
The menu item is set to ON or OFF for both the recording and playback systems simultane-
ously: it is not possible to select the items setting for recording or playback only.
Similarly, the menu item is set to ON or OFF for all channels CH1 to CH8 (or CH1 to CH4)
simultaneously: it is not possible to select the items setting for specific channels only.
If the DATA mode has been selected using F10 (STYLE) when the system format is 1080/59i
4ch or 720/59p 4ch, the DATA mode setting takes precedence. (Recording and playback are
conducted with the rate converter bypassed.)
Formats supported
The menu item is displayed and ON or OFF can be selected as its setting only with the system
formats listed below.
1080/23p (psf)_8ch, 1080/25p (psf)_8ch, 1080/50i_8ch, 1080/59i_8ch,
720/59p_8ch, 1080/59i_4ch, 720/59p_4ch
When 1080/24p(psf) 8ch has been selected as the system format, the menu display is cleared,
and the rate converter is forcibly set to ON.
When 525/59i 4ch, 525/59i 8ch or 625/50i has been selected as the system format, the menu
display is cleared, and the rate converter is forcibly set to OFF.
Precautions when selecting OFF as the rate converter setting
The video input and AES input must be synchronized.
The video output and reference signal selected by OUT REF must be synchronized.
During P.PLAY playback, the frequency of the digital audio output ceases to be 48 kHz, and it
is no longer possible for the signals to be received by external components.
Similarly, during frame rate conversion playback (such as when a tape recorded at a system
frequency of 23 Hz is to be played back at a system frequency of 25 Hz), it is no longer possi-
ble for the signals to be received by external components.
