DAT digital audio tapes are widely used in music as well as
film, television, and commercial soundtrack production and in
engineering. We worked with Silicon Graphics (SGI) to
continue their tradition of media integration and allow 4mm
DDS data tape drives to also support the audio DAT format.
We created specification, testing and qualification
procedures, and performed testing and qualification
activities for SGI, providing primary go/no go decisions
for SGI. We acted as technical liason with SGI's drive
suppliers and assited them in the specification, development,
and test of these new drive capabilities, including support of
special multi-channel instrumentation DAT formats. We also
worked with some suppliers to develop new generations of
these drives.
