What's the best and professional editor viewer for Super 8?
I imagine one of those with sound, of course, but what model?
For users who know it: is it very reliable? It's real comfortable?
Thank you. [Smile]

I'd imagine it's the GOKO RM8008.

Luis,

I agree with Stuart. The Goko is a wonderful machine with great recording capabilities. The only issue I've come across is that similar to many projectors, the RM8008's belts have to be replaced every so often.

Thank you, boys!
On an old post on a forum I read that recording skills are not very good, but I think it depends by the condition of the machine, condition of sound heads, as always.
Fortunately the belts are for sale, well-available. Unfortunately, however, this editor viewer is very rare...

But is it true that it can record sound at both 24fps and 18fps?
