Multi-Dub Operation
In this example we will create three dubs simultaneously. We assume that
all the dubbing devices’ Sources and Destinations have multiple levels
defined for video, audio and data(
Figure 129).
Figure 129. Multi-Dub Diagram
1. Perform an all Level take from the Play VTR to the Record VTR. This
routes video and audio, and also establishes a port communications
path between the Play and Record VTRs.
2. Test the connection to ensure the Play VTR is controlled by the Record
VTR and the incoming video and audio signals are present.
3. Perform a multi Destination all Level Take, using the Edit VTR as the
first Destination. On a 48B Control Panel (in
Dest Ganging Option 1 mode)
this is accomplished by holding down the Edit VTR Destination button
and then pressing the Destination buttons for the 2nd and 3rd Record
VTRs. All three Destination buttons will illuminate.
4. Cue the Play VTR using the Edit VTR and perform the edit. The preroll
and record commands will also be issued to the other Record VTRs.
