[QuadList] CMX 600 demo on-line

[Ted Langdell]

The CMX 600 non-linear editor popped up many times in a section of  
QuadList member John Buck's book about video editing that I was  
previewing this weekend.

And then it popped up again in conjunction with a conversation I had  
Monday afternoon with editor/editing software designer Lon McQuillin (http://www.mcqpro.com/ 
)

While chatting, Lon described using the CMX 600 at OnePass in San  
Francisco... when he and One Pass co-owner Tom Werner managed to  
digitize, edit, and complete a dozen :30 spots in an 18-hour marathon.

If I correctly understood what he meant by "complete" as to include  
making Quad masters from the EDL, that's quite an accomplishment.   
Even just getting the EDL complete is quite something.

While googling for Dave Bargen to answer a question Lon had, this CMX  
600 demo unexpectedly popped up:

You'll see some Ampex Quads at work in conjunction with digitizing the  
footage for the demo tape.

Enjoy.
