1-Inch Type C Videotape Digitizing (NTSC Only)

1–inch Type C (designated Type C by SMPTE) is a professional reel-to-reel analog recording helical scan videotape format co-developed and introduced by Ampex and Sony in 1976. It became the replacement in the professional video and broadcast television industries for the then-incumbent 2–inch quadruplex videotape (2–inch Quad for short) open-reel format. Additionally, it replaced the unsuccessful type A format, also invented by Ampex, and, primarily in mainland Europe, it supplemented the type B format, invented by the Fernseh division of Bosch, but it was replaced by type C format also there.

Cost is $250/hr.  Pricing is based on 1 hour.  (There is a 1 hour minimum).  Actual time is billed in 1/4 hour increments at $62.50 per 1/4. hour.

We use only the highest quality digital encoding systems to convert your videotape to ProRes 422 HQ, Uncompressed 10bit .Mov or file format of your choice.
