It is also available with a driven sprocket or a damped sprocket. I thought it would be an ideal one-stop conversion for digital sound. I wanted to use one on an older projector to retain the mono basement reader for old analogue soundtracks. I think the dolby septum may clip some of the older fully modualted dual bi-lateral tracks, and introduce distortion. Unfortunately the currency exchange rate made it too expenive an option. Maybe it would be possible to re-engineer SDDS readers to read more than just the Sony SDDS track.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-26-2007 09:13 AM                     quote: Phillip Grace I think the dolby septum may clip some of the older fully modualted dual bi-lateral tracks, and introduce distortion. The septum is actually a bit wider than the track when all is set up and adjusted properly. With some of the older Kelmar scanners it is possible to magnify the track beyond the septum and then you do run into clipping problems. The latest production fomr all the manufacturers pretty much guarantees this doesn't happen. To me older tracks always sound cleaner with a reverse scam unit installed. Mark  |  IP: Logged
