Sound and editing

[oldasdirt]

I haven't been on this forum long,but I have learned that many here like editing by the old cut and splice.It's also painfully apparent that mag striped film is gone forever so anyone wishing to shoot sound must shoot double system.
So what are you guys recrding your sound with?Disc,tape,crystal sync??What are you editing with if you're doing cut and splice?I haven't yet got a response from anyone on mag film or flatbed editors or ESTEC's.What are you folks using if you're not going all digital post?

I record sound with on MD. I edit NLE with an Avid. This is done at a professional post production studio.

I don't cut super 8 anymore.

However, I am thinking of editing on 16mm as a way to have an edit system at home. I could get into a fairly cheap system for editing silent films but to get into the audio part is a complex
issue.

Right now I shoot with a crystal sync so using the Avid really makes the audio portion of editing very easy.

But for a few hundred dollars I can start editing basic A/B rolls at my leisure. So there are trade offs. Cheap silent or expensive NLE with sync sound.
