Well, it's finally tool-up time at the "Clark Kent" daytime job…! My recent showing, at our annual sales conf., of stuff that I had made, using AAPRO, was used to replace all our clunky old slide presentations and such with animated "slides". Now that I have convinced the beancounters to cough loose bucks for video and animation equipment for production of training and sales videos, in house – talk about "building a niche"! I need the big ADVICE, from any and all out here, who are using 3DSr2, AAPRO, or both, and are recording single-frame to 3/4" tape. Rather than throw myself on the tender mercies of the video salesmonsters, I'm hoping I can get some good recommendations (with ball-park prices) for animation controllers and suitable 3/4" single-frame decks, all of which must be ADI compatible, with drivers for AAPRO's FLITAPE utility at least available. As much detail as I can get. BTW, most commercial video equipment sellers scratch their heads and say "ANI-what? A-D-who?"… I think maybe that some judicious info from AutoDesk needs to start penetrating this side of the industry. Do please let me know what your recommendations are, on the video side. We're partial to Sony or JVC, or Panasonic, but I'll check out any brand that can get a good rap here. THANKS! Glen
