Pre/Post Roll Duration

[Francois Jean]

Hi Gerry

This is mostly relative to the tape deck newer machine tend to be satisfied with 2 sec preroll
as for older machine (Betacam SP ) needed 5 sec preroll …. 2 inch quad VTR needed 10 sec to lock the image.

Nowadays 2 sec is is normal

all the best

I think he means the editing preference for play around. There is no pre-roll/post-roll deck control on FCPX.

All the best,

Tom

Thanks Tom. I thought that in this digital age it might be useful to create editing “handles” for transitions.
