Sony Broadcast DSR-45P

The DSR-45AP is a new versatile DVCAM digital videocassette recorder designed ideal for use as a source feeder in both nonlinear and linear A/B roll editing systems.

Its i.LINK interface allows seamless integration into compatible DV-based editing suites. In addition, analogue component connectors allow the unit to accept and transfer high-quality video and audio. For external control, the DSR-45AP comes with RS-422A and RS-232C interfaces as standard. Equipped with a 2.5-inch built-in LCD, the DSR-45AP displays the video signal in addition to information such as audio level and system status.

• DV format recording and playback
With your DSR-45AP you can record and play back DV format tapes (SP mode only) as well as DVCAM format. In DV format the DSR-45AP offers 270 minutes of recording with standard-size cassette.

• i.LINK interface
Using the integrated 4-pin i.LINK interface you can duplicate entire tapes and transfer audio, video and command signals to a PC.

• Analogue video/audio interface
The DSR-45AP provides a full range of analogue video inputs/outputs, including composite, S-Video and component, plus 4-channel separate XLR connectors for analogue audio output. This makes it easy to integrate the DSR-45AP into an existing analogue-based system.

• RS-422A & RS-232C interface
The Sony DSR-45AP is equipped with RS-422A interface, which allows it to perform as a source feeder in professional A/B roll editing systems. Also RS-232C interface allows basic VTR functions to be controlled from a PC.

• Timecode input/output
The DSR-45AP is equipped with time code input/output capability, enabling time code synchronization with external equipment, which is ideal for dubbing purposes.

• Timecode write through i.LINK
The DSR-45AP can copy time code from a non-tape source through i.LINK. This is useful when video is edited on a PC or other NLE system has new timecode.

• Colour bar generator and Tape counter
The DSR-45AP has a colour bar generator that can be activated from the set-up menu. In addition, the system comes with a digital tape counter on the front panel, which is convenient for performing relative time code data editing, and for monitoring the operation of the unit.

• Wireless remote commander supplied
The DSR-45AP comes with a wireless remote commander, RMT-DS5, which provides menu control for precise settings. Most of the VCR's functions can be controlled from the commander, making it ideal for use during presentations.
