I output to BSP every day from a DV timeline.
Since BetaSP is analog, you just connect the Beta Deck to an output card or DV unit connected to the Mac…
and record via the composite (good), S-Video (better) or Component (best) input to the Beta deck.
(Audio must be connected as well, of course.)

Both can peacefully coexist.

You can use this Mackie… and any other Mackie… all great mixers.
The Mackie 1202 VLZ costs less but will work great, too.

OTOH, If you want to save a LOT of money and use your mic, look at these:

[eyecamiam] “On the other hand, most camcorders do not have audio components as good as dedicated equipment.”
Having been in this business for a few decades, I can tell you that the audio section in the cheapest digital camcorders is leaps and bounds better than the finest analog studio gear that used to be considered state-of-the-art.
Under 98% of “finished product” mixes, the camdorder audio will be just fine.
If you need better than that, you wouldn’t have a mic and studio facilities at your disposal at this end of the spectrum anyway.
That’s why, all things considered, the “record-to-camcorder” audio method is likely the better option.

[Michael Black FCP] “Now I have to finalize about 80 of these DVDs!”
Oh My G–
How did you get THIS “opportunity”? :-0

[Michael Black FCP] “Apparently the software it comes with is PeeCee only, so I can’t digitize from the camera or put the DVDs into the DVD drive either.”
Well, any “burned DVD” must be “Finalized” before it will play in a “standard DVD player”.
That”Finalize” step must be done by putting the DVD back in the camera that shot it and performing the process.
After that, you can play it in a DVD player (and capture analog) or use Mac “DVD Ripper” software to convert it to an editable form for FCP.
Here are 3 popular rippers.https://www.miraizon.com/products/products.html
Mpeg SlipStream is very popular. Found at the following link>

[Post Man] “So what do you put Tonga under ?!?”
I’d put them on the list for TWO DUBS.

[Jeff] “…ntsc video all you need is 72 dpi, if the pictures are at a higher resolution you may be able to enlarge them a bit…”
DPI actually has no bearing in video, it is only the number of pixels of the dimensions (horizontal and vertical) that matter.
In NTSC DV 720 x 540 (any DPI) is the approx. one-to-one size.
If you had an image that was approx. 1440 x 1080 (any DPI), you could “zoom in” on it in FCP quite a bit before degradation would be visible.

Continue to use the camcorder and tape it to DV,
You’ll have a time-coded back-up that you can store, -
[walter biscardi] “[Matte] “Not too sure PBS (the network) accepts:
A) Commericals”Absolutely they accept commercials. They’re on the end of just about every show. “This program is made possible by the donations of sponsors like…..” and then you see a few commercials from the generous sponsors. They’re the same commercials you’ll see on regular broadcast TV.”
Another reason I simply do not turn on PBS in my home.
The only time I ever see somthing I might be interested in, its full of PLEGE BREAKS!
