About this Operation Manual
This section describes how to use this Operation Manual, which serves as a guide to using the MAVE-F555 Editing Panel.
Purpose and intended readership of this manual
This Operation Manual describes the parts of the MAVE-F555 and their functions, preparations, and general operations which you will need to understand in order to use the MAVE-F555. By using the Multi Access Video Disk Recorder MAV-555 together with the MAVE-D555 or BVE-series Editor, you can easily create a linear-like nonlinear editing system, or an edit/broadcast system with the MAV-555 as a line acceptor in combination with a player. In this arrangement, the MAVE­F555 acts as a controller for the MAV-555, MAVE-D555 and BVE-series Editor as external devices. This operation manual is written based on the assumption that you already have a basic understanding of how these external devices function and how to use them. When using the MAVE-F555, read this manual in conjunction with the manuals supplied with the external devices connected to the MAVE-F555.

1-1 MAVE-F555 Overview

The MAVE-F555 is a dedicated editing panel intended for use with the MAV-555 Multi Access Video Disk Recorder and MAVE-D555 or BVE­series editor that provides a range of functions that are efficient and easy to use. The MAVE-F555 provides the following basic functions.
File search, display, and selection functions for material on the MAV-555
For edited material and material in course of editing on the MAV-555, cut
insertion, delete, and other nonlinear editing functions (independent editing of the V/A1/A2/A3/A4 channels is possible)
Background operation function using a spare MAV-555 port (recording using the background port or playback of MAV-555 internal material)
Expanded editor functions with the MAVE-D555 or BVE-series editor.
Notes
When using the MAVE-F555 Ver. 2.30, you must use the MAV-555, MAV-555A, MAV-555SS, or MAV-777 Ver. 2.32, and the MAVE-D555 Version 1.30.
For reasons of simplicity, in this manual we refer to the MAV-555, MAV-555A, MAV-555SS (SD mode), and MAV-777 as the MAV-
555.

Chapter 1 Overview

Chapter 1 Overview 1-1 (E)

1-2 Principal Features

1-2 Principal Features
Linear editing support function
The MAV-555 handles material in units referred to as files. Therefore, to carry out recording or playback using the MAV-555, operations corresponding to loading a tape on a VTR are required, that is, creating a new file (for new recording) or selecting an already recorded file (assignment). Using the MAVE-F555, you can carry out operations which cannot be carried out from a BVE-series editor, selecting or creating files on the MAV-555, and deleting files. For a file on the MAV-555 selected using the MAVE-F555, you can immediately use the search dial on the MAVE-D555 or BVE-series editor to carry out a search.
Nonlinear editing functions
By using the MAVE-F555 with a MAVE-D555 or BVE-series editor to operate the MAV-555, nonlinear operations such as adding or deleting cuts (not possible with the conventional BVE-series alone) can be carried out. For editing, you can select only the required channels from the V/A1/A2/A3/A4 channels. You can also use the cut jump function which allows you to cue up sequentially to cut points in material being edited.
Background operations
Recorder selection function
Using the MAV-555 in BVE mode, there is a spare port not used for editing. For example, if the MAV-555 is in the 2 input/2 output port configuration, the R2 port of the MAV-555 is not used for editing, and is a spare port. Such a background port can be controlled from the MAVE-F555. When the background port is a recording port, you can use the port for recording operations, and when a playback port, you can use the port for playback or broadcasting operations on MAV-555 internal material.
When editing with an editing system of an MAV-555 and MAVE-D555 or BVE-series editor, the following system configurations/connectors are required: (1) with the VTR as player and the MAV-555 as recorder, for creating the editing result file in the MAV-555, and (2) with the MAV-555 as player and the VTR as recorder, for returning the completed MAV-555 internal file to the VTR. Using the recorder selection function, you can provide both of these with a single system configuration/connection, switching by a simple MAVE-F555 button operation (pressing the MAV key or VTR key). Depending on the settings in the MAV-555 setup menu, the devices/ports controlled (by the P1 and P2 keys) when the MAVE-F555 MAV key is selected, and the devices/ports controlled when the VTR key is selected can be assigned freely. Further, depending on the MAV/VTR selection, the internal connections of the MAVE-F555 RS-422 ports (IN1/IN2/OUT1/OUT2) can be switched, and at the same time the connection switching status can be notified from the A/V SEL OUT connector. Integrated use of these operations allows you a system configuration, which as described above is characterized as nonlinear editing t transferring completed material to VTR, and also allows the use of other unique configurations.
1-2 (E) Chapter 1 Overview
Support for connection of multiple MAVE-F555 units to a single MAV-555
Using the TO MAV (PARALLEL I/O) connector of the MAVE-F555, you can connect more than one MAVE-F555 to a single MAV-555, and with different MAVE-F555 units you can easily control different ports of the MAV-555. For example, when the MAV-555 has a 1 input/3 output configuration, you can configure a distribution system so that while recording on a line input to the MAV-555, you can carry out file assignments on the three ports P1 to P3 from the three corresponding MAVE-F555 units.
Chapter 1 Overview 1-3 (E)
1-3 Changes from Version 1.00

1-3 Changes from Version 1.00

1-3-1 Version 1.00 to 1.10 Changes

Cut Trimming
You can now trim the IN point and OUT point after executing the edit when operating and editing a material captured on the MAV-555 using the MAVE­F555 and a MAVE-D555 or a BVE-series editor. Either the results of previous linear edit results from a BVE-series editor, or the nonlinear edit results from the MAV-555 can be used for trimming operations.
Split Editing
When the MAV-555 is used in the BVE mode, with one edit different IN points can be set for editing each channel for the Video and Audio channels.
Clearing IN and OUT Points
One setting now clears IN and OUT points.
Clearing Files Stored with the MEMORY Key
Files stored with the MEMORY key can now be cleared.
Improved Cue-up Points Following Edit Execution
In Version 1.00 the IN/OUT points specified for the target file on the Recorder port were cleared immediately after edit execution, but in Version 1.10 new IN points are set like cue-up points immediately after edit execution.
Successive Cut Jumps
When executing cut jumps with the [ B? ] or [ ?b ] keys by repeatedly pressing either key, without conducting cue-up immediately cue-up will now execute at the time specified from the end of key operation.
Revised Error Messages
Error messages have been revised along with the revised functions.
Improved Superimposed Text Display
The superimposed display was improved as each function was revised or new functions added.
1-4 (E) Chapter 1 Overview

1-3-2 Version 1.10 to 2.00 Changes

MAVE-D555 Compatibility
Connection to the MAVE-D555 has been enabled. The MAVE-D555 contains all the functions of the BVE-series editor to provide continuity and also provides new nonlinear editing capability.
Support for Effect Editing
Corresponds to the DISS, WIPE, and AUDIO keys with the MAVE-D555 connected.
Voice Over Editing
With the MAVE-D555 connected, voice over editing can be conducted. Sound can be inserted after a material at the end of editing. For more details about voice over editing, read the MAVE-D555 operation manual.
Trimming Functions Added
Editing Operation Improved
Support for External VTRs
Under special conditions, trimming on two screens was possible. Now after entering the trimming mode, one screen can be split into two and you can confirm the borders of the cut that you want to trim. Now an added trim can also be executed for an effect result. Furthermore, while trimming in the LIFT mode in Ver. 1.10 BLACK/MUTING was inserted in place of deleted intervals, but from Ver. 2.00 the adjacent cuts is extended after interval deletion.
Before an edit is executed, a PREVIEW for confirmation or a REPLAY to confirm the result of editing immediately after an edit can be executed.
For some special editing, during PREVIEW and play back execution you can capture the desired parts of a material. When PREVIEW is not executing, PREVIEW is conducted automatically during editing.
An OPEN END Edit is now possible without setting an OUT point.
An external VTR can now be selected as a Player or Recorder. Further, while a VTR is selected as Recorder, it can be used for Insert or Assemble 1st Edit editing.
Improved Cut Jumps
In Ver. 1.10 cut jumps could not be executed for unedited files, but in Ver.
2.00 cut jumps are possible by detection of non-continuous LTC points.
Chapter 1 Overview 1-5 (E)
1-3 Changes from Version 1.00

1-3-3 Version 2.00 to 2.10 Changes

For details, see the MAVE-D555 manual.
Functional Improvements when Using the Editing Fader Panel
When setting the recording level when the AUDIO key of the MAVE-F555 is lit and a Player port is selected, the fader is enabled. Therefore, before performing a PREVIEW or EXECUTE/REC, the level can be confirmed.
When the Editing Fader Panel is enabled (the AUDIO key is lit), information can be superimposed on the monitor for confirmation.

1-3-4 Version 2.10 to 2.20 Changes

Supports EDL Export from BZMA-E555
When the MAV-555 is used as a recorder during editing and used in parallel with the BZMA-E555 file transfer program (sold separately), it is now possible to use the MAVE-F555 to output EDL files (.edl) of editing results in the SONY BVE-9100 format. Also, when the VTR is used as a player during editing, it is possible to enter a tapes reel name.
For details about how to enter a tapes reel name, see the Setting a Reel Name section of the MAVE-D555 manual.
1-6 (E) Chapter 1 Overview

1-3-5 Version 2.20 to 2.30 Changes

Time Tracking Function
When you finish an editing procedure, the recorder and player OUT points are automatically moved as the following IN points. Further, if the recorder IN point is modified through a new editing operation, the player IN point is modified automatically (automatic time tracking). Even if you modify the player IN point and time tracking is lost, you can manually return it to its original position (manual time tracking).
For details, see "Time tracking function" (page 3-55).
REC OFF Function
When editing with a specified OUT point or duration, or editing without specifying an OUT point (OPEN END Edit), pressing the MAVE-F555 EXECUTE/REC key modifies or sets the OUT point and ends the current recording.
Saving and Recalling Cut Point Information
When the MAV-555 is turned off, cut point and other such editing information is cleared and cannot be retrieved. However, you can save and recall the cut point information by pressing the STORE key while holding the SHIFT key.
For details, see Section 3-2-2 "Save and Recall Cut Point Information" (page 3-14).
Removing Recorder Port Restrictions
When erforming the following operations, it is now possible to specify the MAV-555 RP port or a VTR as the recorder port.
Adjusting the recording level using the Editing Fader Panel.
Performing audio channel mix or swap editing.
Video Support of Voice Over Editing
Voice over editing can be performed and added at the end of edited material. It is now also possible to add video in the same manner.
For details, refer to Section 2-2-2 "Voice Over Editing" of the MAVE-D555 operation manual.
Chapter 1 Overview 1-7 (E)
1-3 Changes from Version 1.00
RP Port Availability
If you select [MAV] with the recorder selection function and that the MAV­555 RP port is set to the P1 key, it is possible to assign several keys to the same port. Pressing the R or P1 key automatically switches between a Recorder and Player file. This way, it is possible to use the RP port to perform cut editing. You can also use the P2 port with another broadcast application for "On Air" purposes.
File Backup Function
If the power to the MAV-555 is accidentally cut while you are editing a file, the "Backupxxxxx" file (where xxxxx is the date, for example: 05.20-14:00) is automatically created. Therefore, if this happens and the edited file is deleted, you can continue editing using the backup file. However, if the edited file is unloaded before the power is cut, backup is not possible.

With the configuration shown above, the following two states can be used, with a single button operation to switch between them: (1) the MAV-555 RP port as recorder, the VTR as player 1, and the MAV-555 P2 port as player 2, and (2) the VTR as recorder, the MAV-555 RP port as player 1, and the MAV-555 P2 port as player 2. This switching operation is referred to as the MAVE-F555 recorder selection function. In state (1), you can exploit the features of the MAV-555 for nonlinear editing (for material on the recorder, cut jump, cut insertion, deletion, and so on). You can seamlessly carry out operations such as using the BVE-series editor search dial to search for an edit point, and using the MAVE-F555 keys to specify edit points or execute editing, thus realizing extremely smooth nonlinear editing operations. On the other hand, by switching to state (2), you can easily transfer the editing results created on the MAV-555 to a VTR. Further, you can also carry out background recording/playback controlled from the MAVE-F555.
Note
To be connected to the MAVE-F555, the MAV-555 must be at least version 2.10.
For details of the device connections for this example system configuration, see the section Connection with the TO MAV connector (page 2-3). For details of operations for this example system configuration, see Chapter 3. For details of the recorder selection function, see Section 3-4, Recorder Selection Function (page 3-63).
