Ah, the brilliance of forethought normalizing.

I was amazed, however, how the ‘speculative’ nature of the signal flows became largely obsolete within two years. Our 3/4″ deck kept getting lower and lower on the machine rack until it was discarded and its place taken by the RT DVD recorder, then replaced again by an even better DVD recorder that could take a direct FW connection. Outputs to Beta-SP became less frequent. VHS became non-existent as an output format.

We are using our FW patch bay now more than ever. Handy for firestore hookups.

There is your life before your machine room, and your life after. Like with owning a power planer.

That’s the nature of tv production. Now, the difficult part is convincing upper management of these upgrades. That’s the trick!
