Description

Get the best of both digital and analog systems with the DSR60. This DVCAM editing player is compatible with conventional analog equipment and is an excellent choice for video professional transitions from analog to digital formats. The DSR60 features built-in TBC, RS-422A interface and TC reader, which conforms to the SMPTE standard for editing. The DSR60 accepts dual cassettes (standard/mini) and features playback of up to three hours. In addition, it has DV playback compatibility, jog audio and digital slow functions.
Features:
• DVCAM and DV Format Playback
• Dual Cassette Mechanism
• Analog Outputs
• Built-in Time Code Reader
• Built-in Time Base Correction
• High Speed Picture Search
• Jog Audio
• Digital Slow Function
• Auto Repeat
• Self Diagnostics
• Dual cassette mechanism accepts both standard and mini size cassette tapes.
• The DVCAM digital recording format for video professionals is an extension of the consumer DV format. Therefore, it maintains playback compatibility with the consumer DV recordings and is capable of using both standard and mini cassettes.
• The DSR60 provides a full complement of analog I/O for video and audio, which offers compatibility with conventional analog equipment, such as Betacam SP™, Hi-8™ and S-VHS for a smooth and gradual transition to digital systems. Video, composite, component and S-video connections are provided. Four channel or two channel (selectable) inputs and outputs are provided for audio.
• The DSR60 offers a high-speed picture search that provides a recognizable picture at various speeds over a range of up to 32 times normal speed, in both forward and reverse, to quicken editing operations.
• Complete reproduction of four channels or two channels of digital audio is achieved 1/30 to 1 times normal playback speed, both in forward and reverse, in the jog mode. This feature allows quick and precise designation of editing points while monitoring the digital audio signals. The audio data is held in the memory and output according to search speed for enhanced recognition.
• The Digital Slow function takes advantage of digital processing for playback 0 – +1/5 times normal playback speed both in forward and reverse, realizing noiseless slow-motion images with picture quality on par with dynamic tracking playback. Either frame or field accurate playback is possible.
• The auto repeat function enables either the entire tape or a specific portion of the tape to be replayed continuously.
• Should an error be detected, an error message will be displayed which will identify the problem area. In this way, downtime can be minimized. Moreover, the error log function makes it easier to detect the error by retaining the past status data of the DSR60 in memory.
