<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi David -</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Well, I think that is the AE-400 - the next
generation.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This is the original, and first, automatic editor
RCA made. Didn't have a model number, just call TEP (Tape Editing Programmer
with an MI number). No timecode, just a cue-tone benchmark on the cue track and
a bunch of DTL counters and registers. It would output a control at 8
seconds pre-edit. We used timecode to cue the source tapes but still had to lay
in the in-edit point "by eye". TEP would allow a preview cycle and then had
thumbwheels to add/subtract time to that point.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Like editing with axes and stone
knives!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Now - tell me again why they were called "the
good old days"?? ;-)</FONT></DIV>

<P></P>I edited a lot of shows with TEP in edit two and three at NBC Burbank.
Long pre-rolls but I think it always color-framed correctly. Here is a<A

may be one of the last who will admit to using TEP in daily production. Ours
was even mixed with EECO timecode. The source machines would cue to time
