Intensity Shuttle Audio problem
Posted: Thu Aug 02, 2018 8:35 pm
I am running 3/4" production tapes from a Sony Umatic SP deck. Video running through a TBC (RCA in -SVHS out) and audio coming out of three pin audio jacks from Umatic into RCA inputs on Intensity shuttle.
From there, digitizing as Apple pro res22 HQ via Thunderbolt into MacPro desktop (late 2013) and saving on external HD.
All was good for a while...
NOW
Audio peaks well above input levels on one channel to distortion level. Have tested playback etc and its recording that way.
If I put something in the RCA output jacks on the shuttle it might level out but not always.
Am now running audio through old Mackie mixer to try and compensate. Have many hours of tapes so don't want to waste time or ride the audio all the time. Any ideas on why this is happening?
Also, the shuttle gets REALLY HOT!!
I was thinking about getting the Terenex AV to replace all this equipment but don't know if it has TBC built in or if I will run into more problems. <--- just found out this doesn't do analog conversion
Any advice gratefully received.
