Just before the AES Colin Broad and Lawo concluded the successful joint development of the mc²-series machine control. The CB electronics control panels are integrated in the mc² surface. Colin's comment: "The mc² is one of the most amazing recording desks in the world. Very flexible and custom-specified".
The machine control system is available for every existing or new mc² console. The configuration can be done with the CB server software via the GUI PC.
*and some interesting news just received from a customer (May 2003)
Guy runs le mobile a recording truck with Studer analogue A827 24 Track and digital D827, he is using a SR-4 interfacing directly to the Sony machines using Sony P2 protocol, directly to the D827 using AES/EBU protocol and to the A827 using a TLS 4000 synchroniser!
Hi Colin, I just want to say hello,
it is 1:30 am - I am finishing mixing 26 songs for The Pretenders DVD in 5.1. Your CB box is hooked-up to my Studer TLS (analog A800) my Studer D827, a Digi Beta and a BVU 850 never missed a beat, we do not have to think about it. It is always working.

They messed up when they transferred the film to video. It (the CB box) saved our life with the No Doubt DVD (drop frame video when the original master was recorded with non drop frame and with no video we ref'd to "Film shoot") We have found a great trick to reverse the mistake made on the video production, combination of Studer D827, pull down and generate a drop frame to lock up the video and the ProTools.
Thank you again, Guy Charbonneau
