| DVCAM Compact Digital VTR with 2.5" LCD. This new recorder enhances the capabilities of the previous DSR-45 by offering a larger 2.5” (viewable area, measured diagonally) color LCD video monitor. All other features and specifications remain the same as the previous DSR-45. This front-loading VTR accepts both standard and mini size cassettes, and its half-rack design allows the DSR-45A to be easily integrated into existing linear and non-linear editing systems. The DSR-45A is also an ideal VTR for those looking to move from analog based formats to a professional grade digital format with a simple yet robust migration path. |

Feature |
Benefit |
||
|
DVCAM and DV Format Compatible |
Incorporates the DVCAM format offering superior video and audio quality
for broadcast and professional use. Also capable of recording and playing
the consumer DV format (SP mode only), allowing a maximum of 270 minutes
of recording time (DVCAM format: maximum 184 minutes) |
||
|
Compact Size |
Space-saving half-rack size width and two unit (2U) height.
|
||
|
Standard and MiniDV Cassette Size Compatible |
The DSR-45A accommodates the two industry standard sizes of DVCAM
and DV videocassette tapes; standard size and miniDV size |
||
|
Analog Component Video IN/OUT |
The DSR-45A has both an analog component input and output, allowing
a versatile interface with current analog equipment and systems. |
||
|
4-Channel Separate Audio IN/OUT |
The DSR-45A has four independently selectable audio channels for
simultaneous recording. Audio output consists of four XLR connectors,
and audio input consists of four PIN (RCA) connections. |
||
|
Tape Counter Display |
The DSR-45A has a digital tape counter display equipped on the
front panel, convenient for performing relative time code data editing
and monitoring the operation of the unit. |
||
|
Time Code IN/OUT |
The DSR-45A is equipped with time code IN/OUT capabilities, enabling
synchronization with external equipment. The unit can output the time
code read from the tape as an analog signal when played back at normal
speed, and can also receive an analog time code signal from external
sources. |
||
|
Time Code / User Bit Preset (for DVCAM Mode only) |
The initial time code can be preset using the internal time code generator.
User bits can be preset to store alphanumeric data such as date, time,
scene number, and other user information. |
||
|
Time Code Recording via DV IN |
When recording through i.LINK, the time code o the original source
can be recorded on to the tape, making it suitable for downloading non-linear
edited sources with its original time code. |
||
|
RS-422A Interface |
The DSR-45A is equipped with the professional industry standard
RS-422A 9-pin control interface. This interface allows the DSR-45
to be controlled as a player or feeder into linear and non-linear
editing systems. (NOTE: The DSR-45 cannot be controlled as a recorder
by RS-422A.) |
||
|
RS-232C Interface |
The DSR-45A is equipped with RS-232C control interface, allowing
the basic VTR functions to be controlled from a PC platform control
system. (NOTE: An RS-232C protocol manual is supplied with the DSR-45.
Operation compatibility is dependent on third party system developers.)
|
||
|
Color Bar Generation |
Built-in color bar generators are accessible through the user
menu. (NOTE: The color bar is not compatible to SMPTE Standards.) |
||
|
DUB Key |
Dubbing has just been made easier with a convenient front panel dub
key. When connected to another VTR or camcorder with the i.LINK (DV
I/O) connection, a simple push of a button allows dubbing of the original
tape and its time code. |
||
|
i.LINK (DV In/Out) |
The 4-pin i.LINK IEEE 1394 DV I/O connection allows digital dubbing
and editing with virtually no quality loss. The IEEE 1394 DV I/O enables
connection to compatible third party video cameras, camcorders, VTRs,
computers and video capture boards that support the DV In/Out interface
for desktop editing. (NOTE: i.LINK connection compatibility must be
verified by third party manufacturer.) |
