The ‘skip’ buttons are either side of the ‘rec’ button. Pressing
‘skip’ reverse when already located on the first frame of a
clip will navigate you to the first frame of the previous clip.
Record
To start recording, press the ‘rec’ and ‘play’ buttons at the same time. During recordings you
can switch which storage media your HyperDeck Extreme 8K HDR is recording to by holding
down the record button for three seconds.
Input
Press the INPUT button to switch between playback or source mode on the recording deck.
When input is selected, the HyperDeck Extreme 8K HDR will display the connected source.
Preroll
When you press ‘preroll’, tape decks will rewind to the preroll point before the set in point. The
preroll duration can be set on broadcast decks and is often set to up to 5 seconds. For
example, if the preroll on a broadcast deck is set to 5 seconds and the preroll button is pressed
on the deck or HyperDeck Extreme Control, the deck will search and park the tape 5 seconds
prior to that point. This is important for tape based decks where the deck needs time to lock the
signal before it is useable.
Edit
Once you have set your in and/or out points on your playback and record units, pressing ‘edit’
will perform an auto edit, cueing your tapes to the preroll point and then starting the record.
The ‘edit’ button will flash when recording has started.
Eject
The ‘eject’ button has two different functions depending on whether you are connected to a
traditional tape based broadcast deck or a file based deck such as the HyperDeck
Extreme 8K HDR.
On a traditional
broadcast deck
Pressing the eject button will unthread a tape on the selected player or recorder and
eject the tape or cassette. Thetimecode panel will update to reflect the deck as it
will no longer reference the tape timecode.
On a HyperDeck
recorder
When a HyperDeck is in ‘stop’ mode, pressing the ‘eject’ button will switch your
active recording slot to the other one available. For example, HyperDeck recording
with slot 1 active will switch to slot 2. When you HyperDeck is in record or play mode,
pressing ‘eject’ will stop the record or playback and switch slots in the one step.
TIP If you are using a HyperDeck recorder with HyperDeck Extreme Control, the
illuminated ‘eject’ button will let you know there is no media inserted in the drive slots
of the HyperDeck recorder.
