The machine saw good service, and it's light weight allowed it to form part of the [[two camera cable]] system. | The machine saw good service, and it's light weight allowed it to form part of the [[two camera cable]] system. | ||
When the [[Sony Umatic]] edit suit was sold off by [[Chris Ward]] in {{unsure|1999}} following the introduction of the [[The Mac|Mac]] digital editing system, there was an obvious hole in editing capability for programmes that required only simple cuts rather than complex editing. | |||
This prompted the purchase of a second JVC SVHS recorder. The original model had been discontinued so a comparable model was bought, the {{unsure|BR-S800}}, which also featured an RS232 link through which it was envisaged that [[BBC Schedula]] could play out material out of hours - this wasn't implemented. | |||
Finally, at great expense, the original PRO machine and newer recorder were renamed as VTA and VTB and joined by a RMG800U edit controller. Initially this caused great problems as the tape tension was wrong on the PRO machine after a recent servicing at Savilles in Nether Poppleton, this took several more trips back to get corrected. Both [[Lolita]] and [[Vanbrugh Paradise]] made use of the new kit, partly because the version of Adobe Premiere on the Mac tended to lose lipsync with longer clips. | |||
