Ah. Right. You mentioned Broadcasting House only, inferring it was
something in regular use. A standard production tool.

No inference at all.
BH was the place where the meetings were held.

But you suggested I ask for help there?

Yes indeed. They had some very knowledgeable
people, who were able to work without the
visual restraints imposed by cameras. (If they needed
a ten foot mic tripod in the centre of the studio, then that's
where it went:-)

The Radiophonic Workshop could well have made use of all sorts of weird
and wonderful devices. That was what they did.

They were not involved in mono to stereo as far as I know.

Ah. OK. So why mention it?

Because it was one of the most interesting departments
of the BBC. Few people from outside, or even from
other departments within the BBC, got the chance to
go there.


They were pleased to talk with people on
the same wavelength, and with the similar skillsets.

Nice to know both he and you had plenty spare time for social interaction.
;-)

I worked 60 hours a week, so not much spare time:-)
Planning and production meetings, and the development
of new ideas, were an important part of each and
every project.
