Ideas on Field Deck
All,
Does anybody have a suggestion for a good SVHS field record deck? I'm doing
some location multi-camera shoots, and I really hate to drag my AG7750 editor
around to do them.
Portabiliity would be great, but even something the size of a 1970 would do.
What would really be nice is if it had timecode, since my editing setup is
frame accurate. VITC would be better; LTC would do. The timecode would need
to be contiguous, and I would pre-stripe and black the tapes. All this would
save a generation, important in this format.
Unless there's a way to accurately stripe in LTC onto a previously recorded
tape that someone knows of. I guess that that would make up for not having
timecode on a deck.
Also, balanced audio inputs would be a plus. It would be fed from a MX-1 and a
Mackie 1202.
Thanks for any ideas or opinions on the subject.
Regards. Nate
