Connection example for recording (1)
The following shows the example of using the PD606 with microphones, which
makes the best use of the PD606 and can be applied to news gathering, audio
recording for film, etc.
In the example below, audio signals from microphones and time code generated by
the external time code generator are simultaneously recorded to the PD606, while
the same time code is also recorded to the VTR along with a video camera signal.
Up to six microphones can be connected to the PD606 input channels, allowing
recording various sources simultaneously.
The external time code generator output is connected to time code inputs of both
the VTR and PD606. Using the PD606 jam function, the PD606 time code generator
can run with extreme accuracy after it locks to external time code.
Therefore, you can make PD606 recording in sync with the VTR even if you discon-
nect the time code input after the PD606 generator locks to external time code.
When external time code is disconnected, the internal generator runs with its own
crystal (when the generator mode is set to "FREE RUN"). See pages 94 and 188 for
details about the jam function.
