Connections for a Cut Editing System
The following figure shows a cut editing system 
configuration that includes two DSR-1800A/1800AP units 
to serve as the player and recorder.
When using a VCR other than the DSR-1800A/1800AP, 
refer to its instruction manual.
Settings on the DSR-1800A/1800APs (recorder 
and player)
For details of the video/audio input and audio mode 
settings for the recorder, see “Settings for Recording” on 
page 31.
About reference video signals
In order to provide stable video and audio signals for 
analog editing, it is necessary for the built-in time base 
corrector (TBC) to operate correctly. To ensure this, input 
a reference video signal synchronized with the video signal 
to the REF. VIDEO IN connector.
