High-performance heads and compatibility
playback function
The newly developed high-performance heads and
dynamic tracking (DT) technology provide high-
density recording and playback in narrow tracks with
high reliability. In addition to the digital Betacam
recording and playback heads, this unit is also
equipped with Betacam SX format playback heads,
MPEG IMX playback heads, and analog Betacam DT
heads, to provide compatibility playback functions,
and allowing a wide variety of recorded resources to
be used effectively.
Note that the compatibility playback functions differ
depending on the models covered by this manual.
1)
High-precision digital signal processing
and range of interfaces
While supporting a wide range of input and output
signals, all of the VTR internal processing is digital,
providing high stability and reliability.
The audio signals, similarly, are based on AES/EBU
format, and are subjected to digital signal processing
while still uncompressed.
The following interfaces are standard equipment, for
ease of connection to different external devices.
•Analog composite signal input/output
•Analog component signal input/output
•Analog audio signal input/output (4 channels)
•SDI (Serial Digital Interface) SMPTE 259M input
(component digital video/audio (4 channels))
•SDI SMPTE 259M output (component digital video/
audio (DVW-M2000/M2000P: 8 channels; DVW-
2000/2000P: 4 channels))
•AES/EBU serial digital audio input (4 channels)
•AES/EBU serial digital audio output (DMW-M2000/
M2000P: 8 channels; DVW-2000/2000P: 4 channels)
• Time code input/output
•Cue audio signal input/output
High quality four-channel audio
High quality 20 bit/48 kHz digital audio is supported.
There are four digital audio input/output channels, and
four analog audio input/output channels.
Newly developed multifunction control
panel
While a compact 4U size, this unit has a front panel
which provides a wide range of functions while
maintaining existing operability.
Basic operation buttons and jog/shuttle
dial
The basic buttons and jog/shuttle dial for VTR and
editing operations are provided in the conventional
VTR layout, ensuring continuity with conventional
operating panels.
Time data display
This can be selected to display a CTL counter value,
time code value, or time code user bits. It can also
display edit points and edit durations.
Menu-based control interface
The time data/menu display shows not only various
values and settings, but also the pages of a menu
system for commonly used functions. You can use the
function keys and MULTI CONTROL knob to easily
change settings.
Other operation settings, including interfacing with
external devices, can be set from the control panel by
the same type of setup menu system as on a
conventional VTR.
