USING THE LAYBACK FUNCTION
The DL1500’s IN and OUT markers set the record in/out points for the VTR. Assuming the
functions described above are set as appropriate, you must first press PREROLL
3
. You
then press LAYBACK and the VTR will drop in/out of record at the IN/OUT points marked.
You may ‘build’ the final transfer in sections (in this way, you can obtain the optimum mix
section-by-section) and set IN/OUT points as appropriate. You may rehearse the drop
in/out using PREVIEW and, when you’re happy with the results, press LAYBACK to
actually ‘commit’ the recording (in both instances, you must use PREROLL to locate to a
time a bit before the IN point
1
).
It may be that you want to transfer the whole project back to the video tape in one go. In
this case, set the IN at the start of the project and the OUT at the end of the project and
press LAYBACK (F1/F2) to transfer the whole project back to the master video tape in one
pass.
Another use of this may be to receive a video tape as described above but the
‘sweetened’ version on the DD1500 may be laid back to an RS422 equipped DAT
machine thus preserving the dialogue on the original video with a synchronised ‘master’
on DAT.
3 The layback function will not work if the machine(s) are not located to a point before the IN
time. The layback function requires that there be some form of pre-roll.
