For those interested in the definitive story of editing, I can recommend two books by John Buck called 'Timeline' & 'Timeline2'. Available through usual ebook outlets. Incidentally - just a couple of weeks ago I dumped my Accom disk recorder at the local tip. It gave me a perverse satisfaction to toss it in the skip!
