IMPORTANT NOTES

291a

In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on p. 3 , please read and observe the following:

Power Supply

301

•

Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is

being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by

an inverter (such as a refrigerator, washing machine,

microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a

motor. Depending on the way in which the electrical

appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit

to malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it is not

practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect a

power supply noise filter between this unit and the

electrical outlet.

307

•

Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the

power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions

and/or damage to speakers or other devices.

308

•

Although the LCD and LEDs are switched off when the

POWER switch is switched off, this does not mean that the

unit has been completely disconnected from the source of

power. If you need to turn off the power completely, first

turn off the POWER switch, then unplug the power cord

from the power outlet. For this reason, the outlet into

which you choose to connect the power cord’s plug

should be one that is within easy reach.

Placement

351

•

Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment

containing large power transformers) may induce hum.

To alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this

unit; or move it farther away from the source of inter-

ference.

352a

•

This device may interfere with radio and television

reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such

receivers.

352b

•

Noise may be produced if wireless communications

devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of

this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initi-

ating a call, or while conversing. Should you experience

such problems, you should relocate such wireless devices

so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch

them off.

354a

•

Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near

devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed

vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes.

Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.

355b

•

When moved from one location to another where the

temperature and/or humidity is very different, water

droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage

or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in

this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must

allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation

has completely evaporated.

Maintenance

401a

•

For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth

or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To

remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a

mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe

the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.

402

•

Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any

kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or

deformation.

Repairs and Data

•

Please be aware that all data contained in the unit’s

memory may be lost when the unit is sent for repairs.

Important data should always be backed up a DV tape, or

written down on paper (when possible). During repairs,

due care is taken to avoid the loss of data. However, in

certain cases (such as when circuitry related to memory

itself is out of order), we regret that it may not be possible

to restore the data, and Roland assumes no liability

concerning such loss of data.

Additional Precautions

551

•

Please be aware that the contents of memory can be

irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the

improper operation of the unit. To protect yourself against

the risk of loosing important data, we recommend that

you periodically save a backup copy of important data

you have stored in the unit’s memory on a DV tape.

552

•

Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents

of data that was stored on a hard disk once it has been

lost. Roland Corporation assumes no liability concerning

such loss of data.

553

•

Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s

buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks

and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.

556

•

When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the

connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way you

will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable’s

internal elements.

557

•

A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit during

normal operation.

558a

•

To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit’s

volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use

headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about

those around you (especially when it is late at night).

DV-7DL_PRO_e2.book 6 ページ２００５年１月７日　金曜日　午後１２時２分

7

559a

•

When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box

(including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise,

you will need to use equivalent packaging materials.

562

•

Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If using

some other make of connection cable, please note the

following precautions.

• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use

cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this

unit. The use of such cables can cause the sound level

to be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For infor-

mation on cable specifications, contact the manufac-

turer of the cable.

• Due to the structural design of this instrument, small pets

or other animals could end up getting trapped inside it. If

such a situation is encountered, you must immediately

switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from

the outlet. You should then consult with the retailer from

whom the instrument was purchased, or contact the

nearest Roland Service Center.

Handling CD-ROMs

801

•

Avoid touching or scratching the shiny underside

(encoded surface) of the disc. Damaged or dirty CD-ROM

discs may not be read properly. Keep your discs clean

using a commercially available CD cleaner.

Handling Hard Disks

Important Performance and Image

Data

811

•

Once a hard disk fails to function normally, all data that

has been stored on it could be destroyed.

All hard disks eventually wear out.

We recommend that

you consider the hard disk not as a permanent storage

site, but as a place to store data temporarily. We also

recommend that you back up important performance and

image data that cannot be recorded again onto the

external media that is supported by your device. For

instructions on how to make such backups, refer to the

owner’s manual for your device.

Note that Roland assumes no liability whatsoever,

including monetary compensation, for the loss of any

recorded content in the event of the malfunction of, or

physical damage to the hard disk, or for any direct or

incidental damages resulting from the loss of such data.

Precautions Regarding Setup and Use

812

•

Certain hard disk setup procedures and usage conditions

may result in the corruption of recorded data, malfunc-

tioning, or physical damage to the disk, so be sure to

observe the following precautions.

• Do not subject the hard disk to vibration or shock,

especially while the unit is in operation.

• Do not set up the unit in any location where it may be

affected by vibration from external sources, or on any

surface that is not stable and level.

• If the device includes a cooling fan, ensure that the fan

and the side panel air vents remain unobstructed.

• Do not leave the unit in any environment subject to

temperature extremes; for example, in a closed

automobile in summer or outdoors during winter.

• Do not use the unit in conditions of high temperature

and humidity or in any location subject to rapid

temperature changes.

• Do not unplug the power cord or switch off any circuit

breakers in the circuit to which the unit is connected

while the power is turned on.

• Do not move the unit while the power is turned on or

immediately after turning off the power. When trans-

porting the unit, first turn off the power and confirm

that the display screen has gone off, disconnect the

power plug, then wait at least two minutes before

moving the device.

Emergency Procedures

813

*

The following procedures are to be used as emergency

measures only, and are not recommended for normal

operation.

• If the device fails to respond to operational commands or

does not complete operations, turn off the power. If the

power does not shut off following normal shutdown

procedures, disconnect the power plug.

If the unit does not operate normally when the power is

turned on again, it may mean that the hard disk has been

damaged. In such instances, consult your dealer or the

nearest Roland Service Center. Note, however, that it may

not be possible to recover any data from the hard disk

once it has been lost.

If your device features drive check capabilities, use the

drive check function to regularly confirm that there are no

problems, even when the device is operating normally.

For more detailed information on the shutdown and drive

check procedures, refer to the Owner’s Manual.

This is a dedicated video-editing unit, so you can start editing as soon as you turn the unit on.

A Simple, Easy-to-use Operating Environment

This unit is designed expressly for video editing, so you can start using it productively right

away, even if you're a first-time user. Non-editing tasks take up very little time or trouble. You

can plunge right into the realm of editing immediately, without having to learn or remember

any difficult computer operations.

Intuitive A/B Roll Editing

The unit features an A/B roll editor, which lets you switch intuitively between the video

captured from two video cameras. You can use the DV-7DLC to switch the video any way you

want.

A Robust System

This unit boasts a stable system that remains completely reliable even during long editing

sessions. You can carry out editing without worry, even when working on lengthy sequences.

The unit also features built-in data protection, which backs up your data during editing. This

protects important data even if the power is inadvertently switched off.

Operations with a Linear Feel

This unit is equipped with nonstop editing features, which let you edit a sequence as you play

it back. For instance, you can perform such editing operations as inserting video, titles, and

narration while sequence playback is in progress. This lets you make well-timed edits, much

like linear editing.

Punch-In and Punch-Out Features

You can paste in titles and audio material at just the right timing as you play back a sequence.

You can perform pasting in a single step, so you don't have to make any troublesome settings.

Newly developed real-time processing features let you carry out video editing with versatile

effects (dissolve and wipe), titles, and even two-picture compositing, such as picture-in-picture

and double exposure, without having to perform rendering.

Added Effects

Eight new effects have been added to the effects available with the DV-7DL PRO. included are

in real-time effects, such as Luminance Key and Chroma Key, which formerly required

rendering.

Introduction

Narration Features

You can add narration directly using a microphone as you play back a sequence. This lets you

insert narration at the scenes you want as you view sequence playback, just like professional

post-recording. And of course you can redo the operation as many times as you like.

Scrub Audio

The scrub audio lets you perform edits of your sequences that are referenced to subtle changes

in the sound. This makes it possible to perform editing at just the right places where the vocals

and music change.

High-quality Audio Processing

Roland's audio-processing technology lets you perform high-quality audio processing. You

can apply such audio effects as a four-band equalizer and compressor, enabling you to enhance

the audio in your sequence.

A Rich Array of Text Embellishments

You can enhance text with such embellishments as edge, shadow, and see-through text. The

unit also comes with 22 font styles, enabling you to create titles perfectly matched to the mood

and atmosphere.

A Wide Range of Shape-drawing Features

In addition to creating text, you can also draw circles, squares, and other shapes, as well as lines

and curves. By combining these shapes, you can create titles that are even more expressive.

Capture Video from External Sources

You can capture photographs and graphics from external sources by using CD-ROMs. This lets

you use your own original material to create your very own titles.

Create Rolling and Crawling Titles

You can easily use the Titler to create rolling and crawling titles, like the ending credits for

movies. It's also possible to capture text from a computer.

A Rich Array of Expansion Options

You can increase DV storage dramatically by purchasing additional removable hard disk.

Removable hard disks are easy to install and remove, allowing you to organize your work by

using a different disk for each project. A variety of other additional features are also available,

including picture-material collections which are useful for making titles, as well as video-

material collections.

External Synchronization Features

You can operate the unit in sync with a VS-2000/2400/2480 series audio multitrack recorder

from Roland. Synchronization with an external recorder capable of offering a rich variety of

audio capabilities lets you achieve sophisticated audio editing.
