Digital Editing on my A4000T, Toccata or Prelude ? VLAB-Motion comments please?

[Corrie]

I have an A4000T, Cyberstorm MKIII 060 66mhz, 128Mb FastRam, PicassoIV, 9Gig UltraSCSI HD. I am planning to experiment with the VLAB Motion digital editing card.

I would like to hear from people who have used/owned the VLAB-Motion card. Can you please tell me what it is like, how easy is movieshop to use and its effectivness on editing. I have a number of VHS videos that I want to transfer to HD/CD. How useful is this card?

Further to this, I don't have a soundcard as yet, I was keen on the prelude soundcard. Is it a better choice to use the toccata soundcard with the VLAB-Motion card? Will the prelude be just as compatible/useful?

Please reply if you can add some useful info. Does anyone know the history of these cards, pros and cons ?

Thanks in advance!

Alex,

Thanks for the reply mate, it certainly helped. When you talk about the limits of partitions (size-wise) for video and audio, what are those limits?

Can I use a prelude ZII soundcard with the VLAB-Motion?

Wolfie,

Thanks for your reply too. I am going to buy one of the Seagate 15k SCSI drives, so that will be fast enough! What is the best quality that I could do on the Amiga?

Thanks again!
