Re: [ARSCLIST] Industrial Design Historians Seek Help in Selecting Technology



The entire time I was with the CBC (1981-1990), in Toronto and Edmonton, EVERYTHING was done full-track mono except music production for the Stereo Network.

I used to do the remote end of two-ways for the CBC, BBC and NPR. This was before the Internets, so I would typically send the tape to the producer via overnight express. For NPR feeds, I would send the audio through a satellite uplink.

I think the usual approach would be to copy each end of the conversation on a separate track of the two-channel production tape, so overlapping speech would not be a problem in small doses.

That's called a double ender. We used to do them all the time at the CBC.

Cutting and splicing works only when each participant speaks and then stops. Pretty hard to mix when you have an animated give and take conversation, but probably not as difficult to do it electronically..
Could you not record the entirety of what occured (sonically) at both
ends, and then create an "interview tape" by editing both results...?

In the good old days, we'd do that by having both tapes physically in one studio. I can't remember whether that involved feeding one of the tapes down the line or shipping it (hard to believe, but it might have been necessary in some cases). Today you could probably send it as a file.
