  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Thoughts on VECTORSCOPES

Thanks again guys for all the great suggestions...

EDIT: Any idea what/when FALL 2009 means?

Euphonix are lot more affordable than JL Cooper, although the latter isn't bad compared to Tangent CP-200
series. I just hadn't heard from anyone actually used/demo'd their stuff, so wasnt sure of quality. Thanks again

Euphonix sound mixing controller boards are among the most popular in the industry, used in many of the best facilities in the country. They have made it a point to be very hardware and software agnostic, so they work equally well with ProTools, Nuendo, and many editing software packages. The MC Control is basically one, slightly cut-down module from the sound boards, and is a well proven and very well supported device. Unlike many other manufacturers, Euphonix concentrated on developing controllers for other systems, not the systems themselves, and it's paid off. I don't expect that these desktop products will be any less reliable.

2. It's a very questionable idea to have two reference color monitors. You're saying you want to use a Dreamcolor (I would question that) AND a Sony consumer LCD. I would suggest that you drop both and replace them with a Panasonic Pro Plasma, saving yourself at least $2000 in the process. It is very unlikely that your clientele are going to require film output, so HD deliverables are your primary target. The plasma will provide a bigger canvas (50 inches, if you choose that model), better accuracy for Rec709 work (especially in the blacks, assuming you have it calibrated properly), and a wider viewing angle for those in the room who aren't sitting in the colorist's chair.

No. You likely want the TH-50PF11UK. The PK series is the lower resolution plasma panel (it's 1366x768, approxmately 720p resolution), the PF series is full 1920x1080. The "11" indicates pro model series 11.

For the price this looks very good. I must fine a store with them to check it out. Are you aware of any drawbacks with it in a professional environment ?

Thanks for pointing us at it.
 
What about this tim?

HARRIS VIDEOTEK VTM-2000 MULTIFORMAT ON-SCREEN MONITOR


The Videotek© VTM-2000 multiformat on-screen monitor continues the Videotek tradition of cost-effective monitoring of SD-SDI and analog composite signals. Based on the technology developed for the VTM Series,T the VTM-2000 is an easy-to-operate tool to monitor and measure SD-SDI (525 and 625) and analog composite (NTSC and PAL) signals on any XGA-capable monitor. The output display includes video picture, waveform, vector and alarm status or optional audio. The display can be configured to enable the viewing of each element in one quadrant of the screen or any element in a full-screen view.

The VTM-2000 also optionally accepts four AES/EBU stereo pairs, four mono or two stereo analog inputs and embedded audio from the SDI inputs. Audio can be displayed as two- or four-channel bar graph meters with a phase bar and Lissajous readout for each meter pair.

Alarms include RGB gamut, loss of video and EDH for SDI; loss of signal (sync or carrier) for composite and SDI; peak video and SC/H phase for composite; and peak audio and loss of sound for audio. Four presets store user setups for convenience.
