I have set the levels with it in nsync. pushed it in stereo and mono and there are no defferences in the levels.  |  IP: Logged Ian Bailey Master Film Handler Posts: 317 From: Nambucca Heads, Australia Registered: Jun 2003 posted 04-15-2005 05:44 AM                     Monte the wierd thing is that this is an "analogue only" auditorium,so I don't understand why I'm getting the BUZZ on a couple of DTS trailers and not getting the BUZZ on DTS features that I run in analogue.And the fault is intermittent and when it happens it's from the very start of the trailer to the exact end of the trailer!!WIERD SHIT!! Anyway the knowledge I have got from you guys today I will put into practise late tonight with the Buzz track and Dolby level track.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 04-15-2005 05:48 AM                     It's very simple. Your optical soundhead is slightly off alignment to one side and those particular trailers are printed off alignment slightly to the other side (but not enough to produce a buzz on a properly aligned reader). You need to have your soundhead re-aligned...but then I said that yesterday.  |  IP: Logged Ian Bailey Master Film Handler Posts: 317 From: Nambucca Heads, Australia Registered: Jun 2003 posted 04-15-2005 07:23 AM                     Thanks Brad-old barstards like me need to be told a couple of times for it to sink in!!  |  IP: Logged
