Re: [Avid-L2] OT: Sony BVU 800 series TBCs color direct vs. color process?

 

It's the how it worked I'm trying to remember.  The subcarrier feed back to the deck somehow neutralized the time base error of the chroma decode or some such thing.  If you can fill in the blanks in my memory maybe I can let this go.

I say:

I didn't recall it actually saying 'direct' on the TBC, but I believe you.  I'll have to check that for my own sanity once I get behind my Sony TBC for a look-see.
I do know how it worked, I only thought they didn't call it 'direct'.
