I never worked with one of these. I may have seen one at the factory but never trained up or heard of any installed. Of course I didn’t get the “A” trips so there could have been a few around. At Pacific Video, we had 6 AE-600s using CMX editors. The AE electronics (made by EECO) did all the real synchronization and editing accepting commands from the CMX. We also had Recordec (sp?) R-mod reel servos instead of the stock ones. Much faster at cueing and winding (and also shooting tape across the room).<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125); "><o:p> </o:p></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125); ">I actually came up with a modification that allowed the AE600 to fully synchronize and edit with 3 second prerolls every time. It never failed (well never say never). The stock machines would fail sync too often and I spent a lot of time figuring it out (while with RCA). They never came out with an official mod since it didn’t come within, but I was often called to provide the info. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125); "><o:p> </o:p></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125); ">For simple machine to machine editing, you could just use the control panel from any machine and tie up with 2 other quads.
