Re: [Frameworks] Magnasynch Moviola guitar amp

2014-08-07 Thread Francisco Torres
1n 1999 i liberated, along 2 moviola amps, several 16 reading mag track
heads that I still use to this day for concrete tape collages. They read
1/4 tape well enough. Hell, they even pick up the sound on mass transit and
garage cards...

Re: [Frameworks] Magnasynch Moviola guitar amp

2014-08-06 Thread todd eacrett



This has me thinking about other guitar applications of obsolete film 
tech. IR optical pickups are now available, but has anyone tested old 
16mm optical heads with strings? Is the response rate fast enough for a 
string's vibration? I envision a frankenguitar of unplayable 
proportions and unbearable sounds. My kind of project.
