I need some help from one of you UK members, as I have a reel of "Clint Eastwood" trailers that is out of sync, but I have just purchased another one that is perfectly in sync, so the obvious answer is to re-record the out of sync one using the "Perfect" copy, well as I'm not very technically minded, and never done this before, I need HELP! with this. I know that some of the forum members are very capable at doing this kind of job, and I'll pay for postage etc., but can someone take this job on for me, I could perhaps throw a free film in for doing the job (200' or 400' something like that), so if you could let me know I'd appreciate it. You can contact me at indi8films@aol.com or phone 01992 652792, or via the Forum, it doesn't matter to me.

All the best,

Barry.

Send it to me Barry. If it's the reel with the six Eastwood trailers then I already have a copy myself but if the sound on the out of sync' copy is good then it won't take much to lift the sound off that and put it in sync' so no need to send both copies.

Dear John,

Thanks very much, it is the 400' reel with 6 Eastwood trailers on it. The sound seems fine, just out of sync, I'll get it off to you today.

All the best,

Barry.

Dear John,

You are a kind fella, I wouldn't know where to start with something like this.

This is a job for the Cresta sync pulse unit [Smile]

In Johns case he can get one GS to control another by connecting the ESS out pulse to the input of the second machine....go for it John [Smile]
