Chapter 1 Overview
High-speed search function
If you use the optional remote control unit (DSRM-
20), the unit has a picture search function that allows
you to view color picture at playback speeds up to 14
times normal speed (DSR-50) or up to 17 times normal
speed (DSR-50P) in forward and reverse directions.
When remote-controlling this unit in shuttle mode
from an editing controller or a remote controller, you
can search at a variable speed in the range 0 (still) to
about 14 times normal (DSR-50) or about 17 times
normal (DSR-50P) in both directions. You can also
search frame-by-frame in jog mode.
You can also hear playback audio.
Internal time code generator/reader
The unit contains a time code generator/reader that can
generate and read longitudinal time code (LTC) in the
SMPTE format (DSR-50) or EBU format (DSR-50P).
This unit can output the time code read from tape as an
analog (LTC) signal, and receive externally generated
time code (LTC).
Digital slow playback
The unit has a frame memory function that allows slow
playback without noise. This is available only at +
1
/3-
time speed and –
1
/3-time speed. (This function is
available only when the DSRM-20 is used.)
TBC (Time Base Corrector)
The unit has a digital TBC that provides jitter-free
video output for analog signals. The video output
level, chrominance signal output level, setup level
(DSR-50 only), sync and subcarrier level can all be
adjusted.
Jog audio function
If you use the optional remote control unit DSRM-20,
audio can be monitored at various playback speeds
when in jog mode.
Various interface
The unit provides many types of interface connectors.
• Analog video: component video, composite video, S-
video (IN/OUT)
• Analog audio: XLR (3-pin) input connectors provide
four channel simultaneous recording, phono jack type
output connectors.
• i.LINK (DV)
1)
: i.LINK-compliant DV IN/OUT
connector (6-pin) allows input or output of digital
video/audio signals in DVCAM/DV format.
• Camera: Camera interface (26-pin) supplies power to
the camera from this unit.
• TC (Time code): BNC type input/output connectors
allow input/output of the time code between this unit
and an external device.
Other Features
Built-in color LCD monitor
The unit has a 2.5-type color LCD (liquid crystal
display) monitor that lets you verify images on the
spot. You can see the setup menus and system statuses.
Menus and data can be superimposed over the picture
being displayed.
Duplicate, including cassette memory data
Using the i.LINK cable, you can duplicate a tape that
includes time code and cassette memory data. If the
original tape has blank portions, simply duplicate the
tape skipping the blank portions.
