Hi Sandra,
I am an avid Videonics user myself, although I don't have any claim to fame
yet. I only do video as a hobby for my friends and the boating organization of
which I belong.
I started out by ordering the EditMaker and ended up sending it back after
spending three frustrating days trying to make tapes without a LANC tape
deck to go with it. I had just bought my first camcorder and taken the
usual "footage" shots when I decided I needed a way to edit the video. I sent
off for the Editmaker with great expectations. That was a year ago.
I have since purchased a LANC playback deck, but have abandoned ever wanting to
go back to the EditMaker. I am now using the Video Director 2.0 for Windows to
control my deck and it allows quick logging of video footage and maintains a
database with a storyboard to display 1st frame of each clip.
I also have the MX-1 mixer, which is a really nice piece of equipment. I am
just now trying to sell my titlemaker and Thumbs Up edit controller and Video
Equalizer. I am using the computer more and more to supplement the video
making process.
