The industry is no longer reliant on Betacam – or any tape-based recording format – as digital has become the new standard. Despite this shift, huge amounts of quality material still live on these outdated cassettes.
With DAMsmart, this can be transferred to a digital form that you can use to access, share and monetise. We clean, repair and digitise all varieties of Betacam tapes including Oxide, Betacam SP, Betacam SX, IMX and Digital Betacam. We pride ourselves on offering a complete service too – whether you have one tape or 100,000, our service is scalable.
The workflows we have developed for Betacam digitisation have been tested over thousands of hours of encoding. We use broadcast quality VTRs to ensure we get the best playback signal possible. And if you have thousands of Betacam tapes in your collection, we can also use robotic migration to make the process really efficient. Throughout the process of digitising your Betacam collection, we constantly monitor each step to ensure the very best results. Your newly-digitised collection can be delivered in multiple file formats to address all your needs whether that be preservation, broadcast, production or access.
