Editing Components<br />
With the entry into the <strong>Super</strong> 8 field of the world's largest<br />
and best-known editing equipment manufacturer, editing<br />
bench components, particularly multi-gang synchronizers,<br />
which were formerly in very short supply, have now become<br />
stock items at <strong>Super</strong>8 <strong>Sound</strong>. We are pleased to announce the<br />
availability of Magnasync/Moviola equipment for <strong>Super</strong> 8,<br />
and the selection of <strong>Super</strong>8 <strong>Sound</strong> as a Magnasync/Moviola<br />
dealer — the first <strong>Super</strong> 8 dealer.<br />
The consequences of this for <strong>Super</strong> 8 are significant: greater<br />
availability of <strong>Super</strong> 8 editing components, and reduction<br />
of the synchronizers' price, since they are now being built<br />
in quantity, instead of as special-order items.<br />

We are hopeful that the continued strong interest of our<br />
customers will convince Moviola of the need for <strong>Super</strong> 8<br />
versions of their more sophisticated editing and sound<br />
studio equipment. We look forward to offering you <strong>Super</strong> 8<br />
versions of the 4-gang Moviola, Jr. and eventually the worldrenowned<br />
Moviola console flatbed editors.<br />
<strong>Super</strong> 8 Synchronizers<br />
The synchronizers we supply are built with the sprocket<br />
teeth away from the operator, and with footage counters<br />
that advance when film is moved from left to right. You<br />
should be aware that pulling by hand in <strong>Super</strong> 8 to produce<br />
intelligible sound quality at 24fps is quite a bit more difficult<br />
than in 16mm, where there are fewer frames per linear<br />
foot and which therefore allows the fullcoat to be pulled<br />
faster. We feel that motorizing a <strong>Super</strong> 8 sync block is essential<br />
and all our synchronizers are supplied with a 2"<br />
shaft extension for later motorization.<br />

Sync Block Roller Outriggers<br />
<strong>Super</strong>8 <strong>Sound</strong>'s unique roller outriggers lift the film cleanly<br />
away from the sprocket teeth so that it is not scratched, and<br />
hold it in the guide rollers straight over the sprocket wheel.<br />
Film can usually be lowered back into place with one hand,<br />
instead of fumbling with two hands to pick it out of the<br />
space next to the sprocket wheel. You must order these outriggers<br />
with the sync block, as they are custom-fitted to provide<br />
accurate alignment of all the rollers. You need one outrigger<br />
for each gang of the synchronizer.<br />

<strong>Super</strong>8 <strong>Sound</strong> Sliding Magnetic Head<br />
The Sliding Magnetic Head is mounted directly in line with<br />
the editing bench viewer. It can be unlocked and moved to<br />
advance or retard the sound relative to the picture by up<br />
to twelve frames in either direction. This greatly simplifies<br />
syncing up the rushes, especially in shots with no clapmark<br />
where sync must be achieved by reading lips. The sliding<br />
head can be moved back and forth to "tune in" the best<br />
sync as one tunes in a radio station. Fitted with a miniphone<br />
plug for connection to a squawk box or <strong>Super</strong>8 <strong>Sound</strong> Recorder.<br />
