The Transfer Lab

"The Transfer Lab digitizes to modern formats all your audio, video, film, photos, slides, negatives and more.
VIDEOTAPE TRANSFER
We professionally digitize all types of videomedia such as VHS, VHS-C, S-VHS (SUPER VHS), VIDEO 8
(8mm Video), Hi8, Digital 8. We also transfer more modern formats such as MiniDV, DVCam, DVCPro,
& MiniDVD(8cm DVD). In fact, we digitize most every obsolete format like Betamaxvideo, 1/4-track audio-even 8-track cartridges. We convert broadcast formats such as; BetaCam,Beta SP, DigiBeta (Digital
BetaCam)- even 3/4" U-maticand 1 inch open-reel video formats.
FILM TRANSFER
We convert your 8mm, Super 8 film reels or Polavision film cartridgesand put them on DVDs to enjoy for
years to come. We digitize all motion film using real-time, frame/shutter synchronized telecine frame-by-frame scanners with cold matrix light sources. We direct-scan the emulsion side of the film using a custom
focal chain with absolutely no distorting optics. We do not use consumer camcorders, mirrors or clunky
prism-like contraptions as many so-called conversion services. We use only custom engineered systems
with unique circuitry to correct the mirrored image allowing true "microscopeography" of the emulsion film
surface. Our cold light source is an engineered matrix of 24 daylight white LEDs designed to prevent center
burn-out and keep an even, edge-to-edge exposure of the film.
AUDIO TRANSFER
We convert nearly all professional and consumer formats, so if you have audio recordings you'll be happy to
know we transfer cassettes, reel-to-reels (including: 1/4" 1/4-track, 1/4" 1/2-track, Dolby A, Dolby SR, and
DBX Type 1 Noise reduction decoding), 8-track tapes, microcassette transcription tapes, mini-cassette
transcription tapes and many other formats. We also transfer vinyl and lacquer records such as 33 1/3 rpm
LPs, 45 rpm singles (cookie records) 78 rpm transcription discs and many other stylus type recordings.
RESTORATION / REPAIR / RECOVERY

fire, smoke, flood, mold, even "dog chew" and other problems preventing playback. Additionally, we often
recover data and video from damaged discs. Ask a Transfer Lab representative about repairing or recovering
