Section 1 – Introduction to the DA-98
06/97 – 1.00 – 1-5
tapes for which the DTRS recorder was originally 
designed may cause an error in functionality or 
prevent the user from getting optimum perfor-
mance from the tape. Always use the shortest pos-
sible tape for a given project. Do not attempt to 
use 150-minute or longer tapes in DTRS 
machines, as the machine will detect the thickness 
of tape and automatically eject any tape thinner 
than recommended.
Never attempt to use a tape with the DA-98 that 
has previously been used in video equipment.
1.5.2 Available recording and playback 
time
Depending on whether the tape has been pur-
chased for use with an NTSC (P6/E6) or a PAL/
SECAM (P5/E5) television system, the same 
length of tape (as far as video length is concerned) 
will provide different times for audio work, as 
shown below, due to different frame rates between 
television systems. The indication P6/E6 or P5/E5 
will be printed on the tape package:
WARNING
You cannot cut and splice DTRS 8mm tapes for editing 
purposes. Using a spliced tape in the DA-98 will invari-
ably result in serious damage to the heads, requiring 
replacement. All editing must be done digitally.
