SOUND MOVIOLA

Title

SOUND MOVIOLA

Description

Post production editing machine. Consists of contiguous picture and sound heads which are locked together to run in synchronisation or separately. Optical sound film is pulled through continuously by a sprocket drive and can be stopped or moved across either 'head' by hand. Edge number -ing ensures precise synchronising picture with sound. Later modifications allowed for wide screen and multi-track sound work.
