SMPTE Time Code Recording on Quarter-Inch Tape
This article outlines several steps that will ensure full exchange compatibility between time-coded ¼-in. tapes, allowing two or more audio/video data units to be fully interlocked. Five basic parameters are fully defined. They are tracks configuration, tracks dimensions, modulation type, magnetic flux, and coincidence of audio signal and time code signal. The parameters are illustrated, and detailed observations of the advantages and disadvantages of the proposed system are given. In addition, possible areas of application are detailed, with supporting figures.
