Hi Kev, Good to see you back on the Forum. Too bad Doug and I did'nt get to meet you at the BFCC. Well I'm not quite sure exactly what you want convincing about with the Eumig's. I can tell you that the recorded sound quality obtained from both the Eumig 926 and 938 is exceptionally good, with excellent low and high frequency reproduction. As good, if not better than the GS1200. In terms of ease of recording, I think the side mounted sound console with linear pots on the Eumigs is ergonomically much better than the recording controls on the back of the Elmo, and makes things a lot easier during intense recording sessions. Of course the Eumigs do NOT have the pulse-synch capability of the GS1200. But they do have a very good mechanical speed adjustment which works very well for fine tweaking the projector speed for "Wild-sync' recording against a TV monitor. No its not perfect sync, but it's damn close with a little time and care. Well worth the effort. The GS1200'S ,of course, excel in playback projection, and that's what I use them for.

Thanks, John, I see your point.
I've recently been re-recording some trailers on my Goko editor and with a bit of patience the results have been quite amazing.
Unfortunately, it only holds sync for a few minutes, so it's no good for features.
I was hoping to maybe re-record my treasured copy of Raiders of the Lost Ark (my favourite movie, but not presentable to an audience due to wowy sound!) so was looking at other affordable possibilities.
What I really need is an expert to do it for me! Can I be really cheeky and ask if there is any realistic chance that I could possibly persuade you? Please help me rescue my super 8 gem! Money (name your price!), beer, whatever, you name it.....!
