* Note that the picture is recent but the equipment is form 70s / 80s
The last paragraph translated with DeepL:
In the picture is the archive recorder, with the following equipment (from left to right): in the corner an AMPEX VPR2 1-inch player, then a SONY BVH 2000 PS, in the rack a SONY BVW 55 Beta SP, below it a Digi Beta version, on top of the monitor on the right the smallest but newest piece is the SONY PDW 1500 recorder, and the row is completed by another 1-inch player, the SONY BVH 3100 PS. On the table in the middle are the controls and editing tools for the 1-inch machines.
Found on the Aesthetics Wiki’s page for Cassette Futurism and identified as Hungarian TV technology through “Cassette Futurism”: salvare gli anni Ottanta dai fanboy nostalgici 1/3 (Italian).
The LCD monitor really threw me for a few seconds before realising this wasn’t a photo from the 70s / 80s.
Added a note to clarify :P.
Thanks! I think I just need my morning coffee haha.
I remember those Sony 1" machines. We used to use a pair of them to do a delay for a sports call in show. Record on one, then through the air to playback on the other. The distance between the machines determined the length of the delay.
Interesting seeing the Windows 7 logo in the mix. Must’ve been some hardware added later like the LCD screen. Or maybe it’s a joke sticker, little hard to tell
