Can the AUTO EDIT feature be used without time code?
It is possible, but the AUTO EDIT feature was designed to be used in conjunction with either RCTC or VITC time code. Without using time code, the SE-200 must rely on the accuracy of your video source’s tape counter. In many cases, after a source player has rewound and fast-forwarded a few times, the tape counter becomes inaccurate, and your “In” and “Out” edit points can be adversely affected.
