Glenn, I think the control track thing is grasping at straws, so you ar probably right not to waste time testing it out. The reason I say that is, if the problem you are experiencing is generic to Studio 16, there is no indication of control track funnies in my set up, yet I have Studio 16s erratic reading and report of time code errors all the time – errors my decks don't see and which are not in the VITC. Also, my decks will abort an edit if a control track error occurs. And I've only had that happen a few times (alway with Ampex tape, so I quit using it and not use Fuji an 3M). So, I dont think that is it. wmc – via Autopilot!
