I just picked up my copy of MM300 today, looks great, I played with it without even reading the instructions it was that easy, tomorrow I will read them to see how to use my Glock with it. Broadcast Titler is not very easy to use with Glock. Great Program!

William, We haven't had much luck with using the G-Lock in conjunction with some of our machines. Probably due to the fact that our G-Lock was an early evaluation and needs to be recalibrated. Otherwise, the G-Lock EX that is included with MM300 works fine. Here's a couple of tips: The G-Lock control cable thru the Scala Key (dongle) pass-thru probably won't work. You will need to move the dongle to the mouse port and connect the G-Lock control cable directly into the joystick port. Careful about using overmodulated NTSC colors. They tend to bleed and artifact on the G-Lock than other genlock devices. If it is too difficult to adjust all the colors in your script, then go into the "GL" control panel and make saturation adjustments in one of the three presets. From Scala, you can call up any one of the three presets from the G-Lock EX control panel. If you have any additional questions, let me know. Regards, John Chang Technical Support Manager Scala, Inc.

John, As you know from discussion with me and my colleague, Russ Spencer, we use SCALA. We are using it primarily for producing portions of videos and are in the midst of 1 project and in negotiations with clients for 3 other projects. Per previous discussion, our main interest is figuring how to co-ordinate its use with Toaster and Flyer.

John, yes, there is something i would like to see in the future. I am a user of a Neptun genlock from Electronic Design, Munich, Germany. The Neptun could be controlled via an serialport and ARexx-script. It should be comfortable via an EX-module. Regards, Reinhard Duczek Reinhard

Reinhard, Hmmm, I'm not familiar with that particular brand or model of genlock device. Is it branded by any other company or model name/number? If not, could you please provide me an address and telephone number so that I can get the Scala R&D crew in Norway to contact them? Thanks. Regards, John Chang Technical Support Manager Scala, Inc.

John, We are currently Infochannel and Scala users and resellers. My company is Computer Spectrum in Burlingame, CA. We are a regular Amiga dealer in the SF Bay Area. We were among the first American companies to become an Infochannel dealer two years ago. Our interest in Infochannel is primarily to create interactive touchscreen kiosks as well as presentations. One question. When will we see a PC player for Infochannel and when will we see Scala Multimedia for the PC? Thanks, Nancy
