Re: [Avid-L2] Re: (now) Teranex 2D (was) Teranex Minis for sale

Yes, 29.97 to 23.98 is (for most material) the roughest and most awful
conversion. However, I'm looking forward to test driving the pulldown
removal aspect of this new box. The Mini does it, but it only works with
constant cadence pulldown. Many times I'm trying to remove pulldown from
broken cadence 29.97, and the 2D box purports to fix cadence issues on the
fly in its removal.
