<BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE style="BORDER-LEFT: #0000ff 2px solid; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px">The Burbank SC/ Automation was a Copy of New York, they were a full <BR>
Network backup, besides their normal tape delay function. I don’t think <BR>
they ever originated the Network, but they could if NY failed<BR>

I ask:<BR>
<BR>
Do you have any photos of the Burbank SC? I'd love to see them.<BR>

Here is the first pix that came to mind showing the SC panel in the background. In the photo is Steve Orland, at that time in VTR management, but a former splicer on Dean Martin (among others). I met up with Steve for a long chat about a year ago in <BR>
Vegas. This shows the machine pairing for zone delay. In this case, VTR 3 and 3A. The SC panel is partially obscured by Steve in the BG.<BR>
I may have a better pix somewhere of the SC panel. I would bet that panel had at least 25 years of service before it was removed, all constructed by Burbank "projects".<BR>
You may also be curious to know that the entire tape room and edit bays were fully carpeted with ant-static theater carpeting, along with sound absorption ceiling tiles. Of course, massive central HVAC and plant supplied compressed air for the headwheels made for a quiet tape room, TR's, TCR's, VR's, and later BVH's. <BR>
