From: Richard J. Smith Autodesk Software Forum · General December 24, 1993 12:28 AM
PMJI, it sounds like you have you problems solved, but over the long run you might want to invest in your own EQ. Remember getting your animations on tape is not hard it's just expensive, IMHO a frame buffer is a good thing to have regardless.I do a lot of…
