The DSR-1600P Editing Player provides excellent performance in an editing environment. It has a full range of analog and digital interfaces and a responsive search dial function, just to name two of its powerful features!

Benefits:

The DSR-1600P automatically detects DV, DVCAM and DVCPRO tape formats.

Playback of three sizes of DV, DVCAM and DVCPRO cassettes

The DV formats include not only DVCAM and DV but also the DVCPRO format. Three cassette sizes utilised for these formats. All these tapes can be played back in the DSR-1600P without any special mechanical adapter.

No need to dub up to other higher formats, which is often required on other DV VTRs.

The editing functions such as digital slow motion, jog audio and DMC are all available for all DV tape formats. Superb jog audio lets you easily handle all the DV tape formats as direct editing sources. This means that, even when using DV or DVCPRO recorded tapes as editing sources, there is no need to dub to other, higher, formats.

Easy to locate target point

The DSR-1600P incorporates a built-in Jog/Shuttle dial on its front panel. This enables highly responsive operation, especially when searching for editing points.

Channel condition indicator gives you peace of mind

For ensuring reliable editing conditions, the DSR-1600P is equipped with a channel condition monitoring function. Three levels of error rate are indicated with a tri-colour (G/Y/R) indicator. This is effective for all DV formats (25Mbps).
