Subject: [QuadList] HS-200<br><br>
<br>
We have had the discussion about the slow motion disc. Several times the HS-200 was mentioned. I remember the demo reel that was made. I know that a few places had them. Usually when a large Ampex package was in a place. One place wasTPC in Pittsburgh. I visited there to look at the RA-4000 editor that we purchased. They had AVR1s and the HS-100 that was also used in the remote truck.<br>
<br>
Who else had them?<br>
<br>
So was the HS-200 a give away to close the deal at some places? Or did places buy it as a needed item?<br>
