Vhs Capture
Hello All,
I am attempting to capture VHS material for a documentary that my company is working on. I have the VCR hooked up to my bay via the AJA.
My question is: what is the Capture Device setting for this? Non-controllable?
Thanks for your time!

Non Controllable is correct. Simply roll your VHS and hit “Capture Now.”
We had to do this last year for a documentary as well. But in our case, we dubbed it over to BetaSP first so we could have deck control AND timecode in case we had to recapture it later. We simply dubbed the entire tape so we’d have it in our archives.
Did the same with some 3/4″ tape archive too.

Great. Thanks! I wish we could dub to beta also, but alas, we’ve no beta deck and going out of house is something the EIC wants to avoid.
Thanks again!

you might want to take a look at some noise reduction.
i use the NEAT VIDEO plug-in for FCP.

I agree. If your footage needs it, NEAT is an awesome tool. The free demo was like the mythical Sirens luring in my credit card with their enchanting (noiseless) song.

I’ll check it out. Thanks!

Sure, in hindsight that was a bad analogy. Using “noiseless” in relation to “song”, NEAT is a VIDEO tool. It was late…
