A Very Fine Vintage

ByAdmin
A table-height A/V rack cart containing various vintage tape players, test equipment, and a small waveform monitor. An audio mixer sits on top.

The vintage videotape rig has been activated! Time to digitize some precious memories with the highest-possible quality.

A number of people have provided us with videotapes from back-in-the-day. If you have something Organ-Grinder related, please reach out to us, we can digitize most consumer (and some pro) formats and provide you with a digital copy in addition to returning your original tapes.

You can help support the project by purchasing from the Crowdfunding Shop.
