WHY TELEVISION TAPE ENGINEERS AND PRODUCTION MEN CHOOSE THE AMPEX CONSOLE 7 WAYS BETTER... Console design is the hottest talking point among the men who do the actual day-to-day production work on TV tape. Seven hands are better than two, and they know it. And they know that Ampex console design gives them those extra hands with a speed and efficiency in production unmatched by rack or any other design . . . • One operator has complete control over all recording and playback functions while standing in one position. • All pushbutton controls are within fingertip reach. • Monitoring is at eye level. • Waist-high tape transport makes changing reels quick and easy. • Splicing is a 30 second operation, right on the recorder. • Desk-top convenience provides space for cue sheets and extra reels — no extra table required. • And it's safe — you can't bump into turning reels. There are already more than 410 Ampex Videotape* Television Recorders in operation throughout the world — in all major networks, in stations and production companies. Write, wire or phone today for an Ampex representative — or ask for the new, fully illustrated brochure describing the new Ampex VR-1000B. Whatever you want to know about the advantages and profits in TV tape, get the facts from Ampex. BROADCASTING, August 3, 1959
