[QuadList] TBC

[C. Park Seward]

The YouTube comparison was done before the 3M DOC was installed in the Ampex so you can see black line dropouts.

There is no visible aliasing in the Ampex/Merlin. It is also a 10 bit TBC.

The compression on YouTube makes it more difficult to see the slight picture differences. The Merlin has a slightly sharper picture while the Ampex is slightly softer. Lockup time is about the same, around two seconds.

Best,
Park

The lack of a good drop out compensator will tell you which is the Ampex original.  The Ampex machine used the built in one that was included with the AFC modules.
