| | Betamax - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Like the video home recording system VHS introduced by JVC in 1976, it had no guard band, and used azimuth recording to reduce cross-talk. | | | The Betamax cassette is smaller than the VHS cassette, and the format produces a sharper picture, although the difference was not always obvious to the home consumer, as both technologies progressed. | | | VHS machines at the time would fully unlace during winding functions, though later VHS models could remain partly or fully laced in order to replicate these features. |

| | In the original VHS format, audio was recorded unmodulated in a single (monaural) linear track at the upper edge of the tape, which was limited in frequency response by the tape speed. | | | These advanced features are impossible to find on later-model VCRs due to the rise of digital video formats.vhs to dvd conversion Because of this, commercial prerecorded tapes were almost always recorded in SP mode. | | | VHS initially offered a longer playing time than the Betamax system, and it also had the advantage of a far less complex tape transport mechanism. |

| | S-VHS - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Introduced in Japan in 1987, S-VHS (Super VHS) was an improved version of the VHS standard for consumer video cassette recorders. | | | In addition, some professional S-VHS decks can record a PCM digital audio track (stereo 48 kHz), along with the normal video and Hi-Fi analog audio. | | | This is hardly a criticism, as VHS Hi-Fi already delivers excellent audio fidelity, approaching CD-quality. |

| | Lazy-I Interview: VHS or Beta -- December 2004 |
| | Unlike the slick, black-plastic post-punk dance sound of acts like The Rapture or Radio 4, VHS or Beta is dedicated to the traditional song structures of the bands you grew up bouncing to, that is if you're in your late 30s. | | | he guys in the past-meets-present dance-rock band VHS or Beta really only have one goal in mind with their live show: to get you dancing. | | | Ironically, a sizable portion of VHS or Beta fans are probably too young to know what's going on behind their backs. |

| | Although i was introduced to VHS or Beta because of their remixed songs, i must admit that they are a truly awesome band. | | | This is VHS or Beta's second album, and even though it's been out almost a year (released September, 2004), the band is still out there touring in support of this album, finding new fans every day. | | | But VHS or Beta's debut is a fairly fun listen, a slice of Cure by way of Daft Punk. |

| | Influenced by such artists as Sonic Youth, Kraftwerk, Daft Punk, and the Talking Heads, VHS or BETA's sound is an infectious pulsating groove of electronic drums, thumping bass and airy guitars. | | | Not just your average techno band, VHS or BETA was notorious for performing onstage in bright blue jumpsuits. | | | In 1997, disco, house music, and funk all came together in a groovy Louisville band called VHS or BETA. |

| | Unashamed of their 80s influences, VHS or Beta have decided to create a record that draws directly from the music on which they grew up. | | | For those of us who understand and appreciate where VHS or Beta is coming from, Night on Fire is a dazzling record full of melodies and hooks that are missing all too often from dance music. | | | Having heard some tracks recently on a Saturday night when I was out dancing, songs like "The Melting Moon" and "Alive" had hooks that would convince even the most cynical wallflower that VHS or Beta are capable of writing one heck of a dance record. |

| | When not tracking 80s legends through the velveteen eve, VHS or BETA find time to retrace their own electro-disco roots. | | | After spending their debut kicking out lengthy Daft Punk-style house jams, Louisville's VHS or BETA have moved on, like so many bands this year, to pillaging the dance-friendly template of late-80s Cure-- Night on Fire, their second outing, finds them window-dressing themselves in shades of black and purple. | | | Night on Fire may be enough to sustain their Astralwerks contract for one more album, but by then we'll likely be too preoccupied with more pressing dilemmas to notice. |

| | Junkmedia: VHS or Beta : Night on Fire |
| | However, the '80s idolatry is far too forced and distracting, and VHS or Beta comes off as trying too hard to imitate admittedly great, but definitely dated, pop music. | | | But VHS or Beta does have a nefarious facility with hooks, and some of the high-fructose tunes ("Alive," "The Melting Moon") stand a chance of infiltrating the consciousnesses of even the most jaded. | | | It is frustrating to hunt for anything of substance beneath the overstated, overfed '80s gloss encasing VHS or Beta. |
