[sci.electronics] Digital Audio Tape Subcode Question

wack@drycas.club.cc.cmu.edu (05/07/91)

Can anyone help me out with the specifics of the SCMS subcode system that's on
the commercial DATs?  It's legit--I've a professional machine, and want to dupe
original recordings onto two home model DATs didgitally.  I read where a studio
trying to do this by daisychaining the DATs couldn't do it, and had to sell the
models they had and buy the switchable SCMS system on a pro model.  I've got
the Panasonic SV-3700, and want to buy two Technics SV-DA10's (the home version
of the Panasonic, without the switchable SCMS) instead of one Panasonic.

Thanks in advance,

Chap.
