Forest, Thanks for the info. It doesn't sound to encouraging, though. My guess is that their lower compression ratio figures are theoretical only. Certainly for the A4000 which as of yet doesn't have any SCSI II controllers out. I thought that maybe they had an inhouse version of one that they were using for testing, but it seems like if they had it working they would certainly want to show it off at NAB, if not for the controller's sake, then for the Editmaster's sake. 25:1 compression ratio will be nice for playing around with, but nobody will take it seriously until it can do broadcast quality (10:1 or better). I called them recently and they said 4-6 weeks, which is what they told me in January. I hope they eventually get it right, because if they do I think they've got a hot product. Thanks Again, Terry Tabor
