A 16-mm Clear-Print Sound-Film Time-Code Transfer Machine and Associated Editing Table

Jean-Jacques Bessire

This paper describes two 16-mm film equipments which have been developed to assist in the introduction of code techniques in the identification and synchronizing of 16-mm picture and sound film. The paper deals mainly with a new sound transfer machine designed not only to transfer the recorded sound-associated time code from 1/4-in tape to 16-mm SEPMAG film, but also to print the code information in clear numerals on the back of the magnetic film. The second machine briefly described is a picture and sound synchronizing table equipped not only to facilitate the rapid assembly of films with numerals in a manual mode, but also to function automatically with full recorded code control if required.
