<div dir="ltr">John Huntington's book, "Control Systems for Live Entertainment " (it is known now as Show Networks and Control Systems) should answer most of your questions. It was a valuable resource for a USITT workshop I took years ago. I think in Minneapolis.

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi folks,<u></u><u></u></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Last fall I started a position at a certain famous large theater in NYC that nicely combines my experience with IT, theater, and show control.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">So far, so good. But there's one area I definitely have a weakness in; timecode and other syncing technologies. I know/have used basic MTC and LTC, but here we have an almost broadcast-worthy system with Evertz and distripalyzers and auto-changeovers,
and talk about tri-level sync and burst and word clock and... all this stuff that is a world I've never dealt with, and seems to cross disciplines (video uses one kind of sync, audio a different kind of sync, etc).<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">It's not exactly a topic with best sellers on Amazon, so I'm searching around fo any sources out there that I can use to get a better handle on this. What does what, how do you combine, what cables do you use, etc.<u></u><u></u></p>
