superb picture quality.
Features
High-quality PCM digital audio
The DSR-DR1000A/DR1000AP is a digital video disk
recorder using the DVCAM digital recording format. It
is the first professional DVCAM studio recorder to feature
a hard disk as its recording media.
The DSR-DR1000A/DR1000AP supports the jog, shuttle,
and variable playback modes found on conventional
VTRs, together with jog sound. In addition, it supports
many convenient functions possible only on a hard disk
recorder, such as simultaneous recording and playback,
random access, and interval recording.
PCM recording makes for a wide dynamic range and a
high signal-to-noise ratio, thereby enhancing sound
quality.
There are two recording modes: 2-channel mode (48-kHz
sampling and 16-bit quantization), which offers sound
quality equivalent to the DAT (Digital Audio Tape)
format, or 4-channel mode (32-kHz sampling and 12-bit
quantization).
TM

either as channels 1 and 2 or as channels 3 and 4. The two
audio channels can be output also either as channels 1
and 2 or as channels 3 and 4.
DMC (Dynamic Motion Control)
Under the control of external control devices, this unit can
play back editing segments over the range –2 to +2 times
normal speed.
Compact Size
Superimposition function
The compact size of the unit makes the unit suitable for use
on a desk top or in an outside broadcast van. The unit can
be used as feeder machine for non-linear editing.
Time code values, operation mode indications, error
messages, and other text data can be superimposed on
analog composite video signals output from the SUPER
connector. The SUPER connector is a special connector
for output of text information. It can be used independently
when you are outputting composite video, component
video, S-Video and other video signals.
Facilities for High-Efficiency Editing
200% variable playback
This unit is the first DVCAM format player or recorder to
provide noiseless, variable speed playback over the range
from –2 to +2 times normal speed.
Special Hard Disk Functions
Extended recording times
Digital jog sound function
The unit is equipped with a mass storage hard disk, which
allows a maximum of 12 hours of 25 Mbps DVCAM
stream signals to be recorded.
When searching at speeds in the range 2 times normal
speed, the digital jog sound function is enabled. The audio
signal is saved in temporary memory, and replayed
according to the search speed. This allows searching on the
sound track.
Rich variety of recording modes
• Normal recording: Input signals are recorded to the
hard disk. A single clip* is created by recording start and
stop operations.
Video process control
• Continuous (endless) recording: This mode allows
continuous recording of new material to the hard disk,
overwriting old material when the disk becomes full.
This mode is suitable for meteorological and biological
observations, which require long continuous recording
times.
For analog video output and SDI-format video output,
you can adjust the video output level, chroma signal
output level, setup level (for DSR-DR1000A), black level
(for DSR-DR1000AP), and chroma phase using the setup
menu.
• Interval recording: This mode allows recording at
specified intervals. You can set the length of the
recording interval and the length of the standby time
until the next recording interval. The recording interval
can be set to 0.5, 1, 1.5, or 2 seconds, and the standby
interval to 30 seconds or 1, 5, or 10 minutes. This is
effective in situations such as biological observations
when long interval recording times are required.
• Pre-alarm (exterenal trigger) recording: In this mode,
recording is triggered by an alarm signal input from an
external device. For example, when an alarm signal is
received, the unit begins recording. Moreover the
recording includes data for the 30 seconds prior to
reception of the alarm signal (this data is continuously
saved in advance on the hard disk).
Search dial
This unit is equipped with a responsive search dial for jog
and shuttle playback.
Internal and external time codes
An internal time code generator and reader enables time
code compliant with SMPTE (for DSR-DR1000A)/EBU
(DSR-DR1000AP) format to be recorded and played back.
This allows editing to single frame precision.
Outputting or inputting time code (LTC) to or from an
external device is also possible using the TIME CODE IN/
OUT connectors.
The unit is also compatible with VITC.
* Material recorded by this unit is handled in units called “clips”, which
contain the data from the start point to the end point of one recording
operation. Note that there is a limit of 500 on the number of clips that
can be saved, regardless of the available hard disk space.
Remote control
This unit has two RS-422A connectors for
communications with external editors with RS-422A
interfaces. Remote control is also possible via the supplied
RM-LG2 remote control unit and over the i.LINK
interface.

playback of any materials already recorded on the hard
disk.** During recording, cue points can be set at any point
from the control panel or from the supplied RM-LG2
Remote Control Unit, and the unit can go back to play the
material from the cue points. This makes it possible for this
unit alone to provide slow-motion playback of highlight
scenes and other kinds of replay required in broadcasts of
sporting and live events.
The unit provides a menu system to make its various
functions easier to use and set up its operation conditions.
Self-diagnostic/alarm function

speed.
**Playback of the clip currently being recorded is not possible during
continuous recording.
Internal test signal generator
The unit has built-in video and audio test signal generators.
The video test signal generator can produce either a color
bar signal or a black burst signal. The audio test signal
generator can generate either a silent signal or a 1-kHz sine
wave signal. Menu items are provided for selecting the test
signals to be generated.
Program playback (clip segment playback)
You can extract scenes (up to 100 scenes) anywhere in the
materials on the hard disk to create playlists. This unit
follows the playlist to play the materials automatically,
allowing you to play sequences with this unit alone. You
can check and modify the lists on the monitor.
Reference signal connection
The reference video input connector of the unit is provided

The internal time code generator can advance in either of
two modes, which can be set with the RUN MODE menu
To confirm external synchronization
Press the STOP button to put the unit into stop mode, then
press the REC button.
Look at the time counter display and check that the time
code value displayed there matches the external time code
value.
FREE RUN: Advancement starts when the data saving
operation is completed.
REC RUN: Advancement starts when recording starts and
stops when recording stops.
To set the current time as the initial time
code value
In step 2 above, set the RUN MODE menu item to FREE
RUN, then set the current time (format: HH:MM:SS:FF =
hours: minutes:seconds:frame number) in step 3 and
subsequent steps.
Synchronizing Internal and External
Time Codes
The internal time code generator can be synchronized with
an external time code (LTC) input to this unit.
To synchronize the internal time code to
external time code
Input an external time code (LTC) signal to the TIME
CODE IN connector, then set the TC MODE menu item
(see page 65) to EXT REGEN.
The internal time code generator locks onto the external
time code and starts advancing. Once the internal time
code generator has been synchronized in this way, you can
disconnect the external time code input and this unit will
maintain the synchronized time code.
Note
When the selected input mode is “i.LINK” (the i.LINK
indicator is lit in the INPUT signal display section), setting
the TC MODE menu item to EXT REGEN causes the
internal time code generator to automatically synchronize
with the external time code input to the unit via the i.LINK
interface.
When the TC SELECT menu item is set to VITC, the
internal time code generator synchronizes to the time code
(VITC) of video input signals.
Once an external time code signal has been input, the
internal time code advancement mode and frame count
mode are automatically set as follows:
Advancement mode: FREE RUN
Frame count mode: Same as external time code (drop
frame or non-drop frame)

Menu Organization
As shown in the following figure, the menu system
consists of four levels and is divided by function into six
subsystems: the Setup menu (SETUP MENU), the Time
Code Preset menu (TC PRESET), the Disk menu (DISK
MENU), the Network menu (NETWORK MENU), the
Date and Time Preset menu (DATE/TIME PRESET), and
the Digital hours meter menu (HOURS METER).
This chapter mainly describes the setup menu, showing its
contents and how to operate it.
For details of the digital hours meter display, see “Regular
The items of the setup menu are divided into several
functional groups on level 1, and except for the MENU
GRADE item the settings themselves are made on level 2
or level 3.
Also, the menu items are divided into two categories
according to how frequently they are accessed: the “basic”
items, to which frequent access is normally required, and
the “enhanced” items, which are less frequently used. In
the following figure, the items shown in boldface are basic
items, and the other items are enhanced items.
The menu settings are saved in non-volatile memory,
which means they are not erased when you power off the
unit after executing the setting operation.

Adjusting the Sync and Subcarrier Phases
When using two or more players, as in an A/B roll editing
system, it is necessary to synchronize the sync and
subcarrier (for composite signals) phases of the signals to
be edited. If they are not synchronized, picture instabilities
or color break-up may occur at edit points.
After configuring the editing system, use a vectorscope to
adjust the sync and subcarrier phases of the recorder and
players. Subcarrier phase adjustment is necessary when
using composite signals and Y/C signals.

office building, a factory, or a school.
Reference video signal
A video signal consisting of a sync
signal or sync and burst signals, used
as a reference.
An editing method that uses two or
more playback VCRs to create
special effects such as dissolve and
wipe, and uses one record VCR to
record the results of the editing.
Using an editing control unit allows
efficient control of the VCRs and
very precise editing.
Linear editing
Editing while playing back video and
audio signals recorded on video tape.
SBP2 (Serial bus protocol-2)
A protocol to control peripheral
devices connected to a computer by
IEEE1394.
Loop-through connection
A connection which allows a signal
input to an input connector to pass
through the unit and exit from an
output connector as input to external
equipment. Also called bridging
connection.
Setup (for DSR-DR1000A)
The difference between the reference
black level and the blanking level of
a composite signal.
AES/EBU format
A unified format for digital audio
signals. It allows a single connector
to carry the signals for two channels.
SMPTE
B–Y signal
Luminance signal
Abbreviation of Society of Motion
Picture and Television Engineers, a
professional association established
in the USA.
A chrominance signal determined by
subtracting the Y (luminance) signal
from the B (blue) signal. One of the
component signals.
The signal that determines the
brightness of the picture. Also called
Y signal. One of the component
signals.
S/N
Chrominance signal
Non-drop frame mode
Abbreviation of Signal-to-Noise
(ratio). The higher the S/N value, the
less noise and higher the picture
quality.
Color signal containing color
information such as hue and
saturation. Also called C signal.
The number of frames of the time
code and video run is not adjusted.
When you use the time code in non-
drop frame mode, the real playback
time will be about 86 seconds shorter
per day than the time code. If you edit
frame by frame or if you determine
the length of a shot by counting the
time code, use drop frame mode.
Component signals (YRB)
A video signal consisting of a
luminance signal (Y) and two
chrominance signals (R−Y, B−Y).
Search mode
A VCR operating mode used when
searching for specific scenes, by
viewing the video output or time code
values while playing back the tape at
various speeds in forward or reverse
direction.

A composite video signal containing
video, burst and sync signals.
Non-linear editing
Editing while playing back video and
audio signals recorded on hard disks.
Video scenes stored on disk can be
cued up quickly, for increased editing
Drop frame mode
Subcarrier
Time code runs at 30 frames/sec. The
NTSC system, however, runs at
about 29.97 frames/sec. Drop frame
mode adjusts this difference. The
time code and video are synchronized
by dropping the first two frames of
the time code every minute, except at
the ten-minute marks.
A sine wave imposed on the
luminance portion of a video signal
and modulated to carry color
information. Its amplitude represents
color saturation and its phase
represents hue.
PCM audio
This is an audio signal represented by
pulse code modulation. The analog
audio signal is first broken down into
a sequence of pulses, and these are
then represented digitally.
Superimpose
To put a set of characters onto a
picture so that both can be seen at the
same time.
EE mode
EE is an abbreviation of “Electric to
Electric”. Video and audio signals are
supplied to the recorder’s internal
circuits, but not to the recording
heads.
S-video
R–Y signal
A signal format in which Y
(luminance) and C (chrominance)
signals are separated to reduce
interference between them so that
noiseless images are reproduced.
A chrominance signal determined by
subtracting the Y (luminance) signal
from the R (red) signal. One of the
component signals.
