1) Sony Video Editing Controller Titler A/B Roll Control RCTC RM-E1000T
Product Details:
The RM-E1000T Editing Controller/Titler is one part of Sony's time-code capable, A/B roll Hi8 production system. The RM-E1000T offers Control L, Control S and infrared (record deck only) deck control. The unit also recognizes Sony's Rewriteable Consumer Time Code (RCTC), which boosts editing accuracy. Unlike most edit controllers, all video signals pass through the unit. Inputs for source number three are on the front, allowing quick and simple hookup of another source.
A single monitor hooks up to the editor; the editor switches this monitor to any of the three source inputs or to the record deck. An external special effects generator (SEG) plugs directly into the SEG input/output jacks on the unit. The RM-E1000T will trigger SEGs and other equipment, with either a GPI trigger output or an Edit I/F output. A microphone input on the front panel allows you to add narration or other audio to your edits. The RM-E1000T is cable intensive, using as many as 34 audio, video and control cables. This can get messy, unless you route them smoothly between the gear. Still, the clearly-labeled connections on the RM-E1000T are easy to make. The titler and edit controller can be as much as six feet away from the main control unit.
The RM-E1000T is the first Sony consumer-level editor to offer A/B roll control capability. Like many other consumer editors, the system uses an edit event list to set up and conduct its edits, allowing you to enter in and out points for each scene. You can enter cuts, A/B roll, titling and transition points on the RM-E1000T. You can change, move, copy or delete any event at any time while you create the list. Press the Edit Start button; this passes control to the unit, which creates your show based on your event list. The RM-E1000T prerolls the source decks, taking the record deck out of pause mode at the beginning of the edit. If something goes wrong, the unit will abort the edit with a beep so you can fix it.
Product Specifications:
The RM-E1000T generates the following:
Monotone (black & white);
Cinema (letterbox);
Fade (to black or white);
Mute (kills video and/or audio);
Mixing (mixes in external audio); The latter synchronizes playback with externally generated dissolves or wipes.
Of these, the fade effect has its own control section on the unit. These are very basic SEG functions.
More complex effects require an external SEG.
You can fade both audio and/or video manually, or automatically from the event list. Cinema and monotone effects have their own on/off buttons on the controller. True dissolves and wipes between sources are possible only with an external, frame-synced SEG.
Menu buttons located on the controller panel call up a number of different menus to help set up the editor for various VCRs. Controls include timing adjustments, shuttle mode, remote control systems and infrared set with a choice of compatible decks.
A Data button on the controller brings up a menu of all edits on the event list. You can then change or add to the list. This is probably the most important menu in the unit; here you can create new edit events or make minute adjustments to the in/out points of your edits.
These easy-to-follow menus are sufficient to do the job, with two exceptions: A/B rolls and GPI triggers. When marking these transitions in the event list, the menus do not provide enough info.
