I then assign those auxes to the green tally output- so they get a green tally, RF cams get a flashing red.

Do cameras get tallies from the router if they're being isoed to the EVS?

jock, i did take some pics that i am trying to post to flickr as we speak... tom, dunno what happened.

[quote="jonas"]as eric said we had 54 HD cameras...a couple hards on each hole (flank, green, tee, pov, etc...) plus ten roving minis, a robo on 13, a crane, a jib and a couple in the 'butler cabin' for the jacket presentation. there were many trucks, maybe 12? the back nine, or main truck, was NEP SS24 A,B and C. i switched that for CBS on an 8k. the front nine was Coreplex Platinum? a kalypso, switched by Jeff Ringel for CBS. then there was NMT HD1 which provided 'swing' machines used by both trucks. F & F GTX12 provided the HD minis... then there were trucks for sportsline.com, bbc, tokyo broadcasting, etc...provided by NEP and DOME. fun. jonas[/quote] The last time I was on Corplex Platinum it had a Sony 8000 on it. What happened?

Jona, did you take any Pics of the compund or inside the trucks?

Got my answer today - 54 HD cameras on the Masters. crazy eh?

thanks, was just wondering.

We don't have a show in Pittsburgh. The ESPN exclusive shows are produced by ERT so it wasn't me.

Mike, I once visited the NEP compuund at a course in Pittsburgh (I don't remember the name) about 3 years ago. The show was carried on delay by ESPN, was that you TD'ing there? I got there during the show and left early so I didnt' get to talk to anyone except the transmission engineer.

On my ABC golf show we have anywhere from 26-36 cameras, including 4 RF, 1 jib, 1 Super Slow motion 6,000-20,000+ FPS, Blimp, a 140ft crane, 2 booth cameras. We generally have a fixed high camera at each hole from 8-18 and low and fairway positions that move from early holes to late holes- some on moving spiders. We have the production/audio/graphics truck, a graphics/ISO/ISO Audio truck, Tape truck, RF truck and support truck. I TD the show, I also have a setup TD who travels ahead to the next show and supervises the utilities and cabling. We have two EVS operators that cut cameras on a router to their EVS machines in a seperate truck and they follow the direction of the ISO director and producer. Their audio is fed by a dedicated A1 who also follows the ISO director and basically mixes two ISO feeds to tape utilizing 8 shotgun mics, handheld mics, tower mics, green "plop" mics, and tee mics. HD on a golf course is tricky, especially if you use fiber as you must put a generator at each camera location for power. HD over triax is tricky as we have some long cable runs. On some shows we have over 120,000 feet of triax cable alone, not to mention the audio, booth fiber, etc. If anyone is near one of my shows, I'd be happy to give a tour. Better act now, ABC is jumping ship from golf, just like everything else. Mike Tiffee
