Really cool machine. It's the Hifi duplicator version of the european SL-C6. They have deleted the vfd display, the tuner and added remote link and test signal posts. That Technicolor sticker gives it a nice touch.
Thank you! yes its probably rarest unit in my collection. I can find only 3 mentions of its existence on the web. not a machine you would find at your local DOW or Federated back in the day so it does hold more intrigue for me.
Very very nice! Really love the C6/ 710 decks and this duplicator is fantastic. I'm not aware of them ever being used in Europe; the SLO1700 I believe was the first duplicator with Beta HiFi as the system used for PAL requires the additional head chips rather than using the upper bandwidth available with NTSC and therefore NTSC Beta HiFi uses the same heads. Really a great machine you have there - looks low hours and well cared for. What was the changer like for it?
Thanks! I've been putting this project off for years and now finally getting to it. The only changer I know of is the AG300. Its been awhile since i used mine. i thought the changers were made for top loaders only.
@@betamaxrebeloutpost8945 There was also the AG90 changerfor the Sony SLC9 but not sure of any for the 710 front loading machines - I'll have to do some research. It's a great machine and wonderful to see it up and running.
Companies like CBS/FOX used this machine to duplicate master tapes of movies and program material onto Beta for commercial release. If the master copy was on Beta then you would use 2 SLO-1400s. One dedicated player, one dedicated recorder. Most likely though the master copy would be on 3/4 Umatic, so they would use a dedicated Umatic VTR as the player and the SLO-1400 as the duplicator.
Gorgeous 😍🥰🎉, thanks for the video
Looks great
I want it. ❤

Was it at least possible to use the 2000 hours with soft SONY tapes?

How do this duplicate tapes if it have only one slot?

I still have a SL-5200. I'm sure it would blowup if I plugged it in a AC socket,,,kid,
haha well I hope not! they're getting harder to come by
