The Sony DSR-25 is a DVCAM player recorder specially designed to use in DV-based non-linear editing suites. With its 2-inch LCD monitor built-in, using the machine is easy because important information such as the recorded image, audio levels, and menu options are displayed right where you need it. In addition, the DSR-25 offers one-touch duplication and the ability to preset user bits and time code, all in a compact and lightweight package.

NTSC and PAL Switchable Operation

When using the digital input, the DSR-25 automatically detects the signal standard, NTSC or PAL. When inputting an analog signal, the machine has a manual select switch on the back, which allows you to select the desired mode.

Easy Duplication Modes

The DSR-25 has three duplication modes which can be set from the menu to copy cassettes:

• Auto Tape Copy with Cassette Memory Copy creates exact duplication of the original tape without the blank segments, and duplicates the memory on the IC chip.
• Auto Tape Copy duplicates the original tape without the blank segments without copying the IC chip information.
• Manual Tape Copy is used to copy the original tape from any position on the tape. The IC chip data is not copied.

Built-in LCD Monitor for Confidence and Set-up

While editing, working images are displayed, audio level meters are available, and system status can be shown to simplify the editing process. When setting up the unit for operation, the LCD screen will display the menu options.

Sony's i.Link Interface

The DSR-25 is equipped with a 4-pin i.Link (DV) interface based on the IEEE1394 standard. The i.Link provides a digital link from the DSR-25 to a variety of compatible equipment including Sony DVCAM decks and third party nonlinear editors. Signals including video, audio, time code, and control can be transferred through this port with virtually no degradation of image or sound quality, which is essential in nonlinear editing. In addition, when a DVCAM cassette with IC memory is loaded into the DSR-25, the ClipLink data recorded on the cassette memory can be uploaded to a nonlinear system.
