The KGM Cinecorder - tape sync. deck
Posted: Mon Mar 12, 2012 10:58 am
Anyone left who remembers the KGM Cinecorder of the late 1950s to mid 1960s?
It provided sophisticated valve electronics and extra transport mechanisms based around the BSR tape deck for very efficient compilation and recording in sync with film projectors and sync playback.
You'd think there would be plenty online about it these days but there is one fleeting mention of the recorder - and that's on a German website too!
(Otherwise I think my Flickr photos will be found and an appeal for information on UKScreen which so far has brought no replies)
I would be delighted to get a copy of the instructions and/or service sheet, very delighted to hear from anyone who ever used one and intensely delighted to hear from anyone who was involved with the KGM company.
