      Hmm...Reminds me of one of my favorite films where a Nagra has a minor part in the film. What a beautiful, and lyrical soundtrack.

      Thanks for the clips, beautiful - I really enjoyed watching them!

      A Nagra also appears in the Beatles movie Help! and in the John Travolta movie Blow Out

      Thanks everyone, for the nice and helpful comments!

        Excellent model! 👍

        I'd love to run it through Thea and get it photo real.

          Excellent model and render.

          I've actually used one of those a long time ago. Fantastic piece of engineering.

                I was in charge of a Department of the Army film team at the Pentagon in 1967. We were traveling around Washington, DC filming protests and rioting. The cameramen had German Arriflex cameras and the soundman was using the Nagra. They were good machines, but the one we had that day developed a short and started to smoke.

                  Could you let me use the file? I do a newsletter for a group of ex military photographers and some of them were soundmen. Too often the soundguys are overlooked and I think images from your model would help generate greater recognition in the group.

                        Wow, look at the detail brought out by the render on the model's tape heads, guide fasteners, meters, etc.

                            Brilliant modeling! You can really see the detail in the Thea render. Love the before & after scroll over on the website Pete....that's a really powerful effect. 👍

                                    Long live Analog. I still have analog media that "sings" to me. Their digital reproduction mask all the wonderful background nuances. Sorry for the off topic reminiscences. I play with a Koetsu on "The Arm".

                                      The model is great and nicely detailed!
                                      And I find it is a nice render aswell if you are not aiming at photorealistic.
                                      Sometimes this is just what you need for certain presentations 😄

                                      Solo: your renders in Thea are spectacular (I scretly hate you) 😄 . I never get those results with that software, and I try and try ...
                                      Someday I'll send you a model and see if you can do something nice with it LOL

                                          Wow, thanks again everyone for the nice comments! I'd be happy to share this model with whoever wants it...it's a bit too big for the 3D Warehouse at 12.2 MB, but if you PM me, I can either send you a link to my public Dropbox folder where you can pick it up, or I can email it to you. It is a SketchUp 8 file by the way...

                                            Dear Rick (unigami),
                                            I me too Like very much your Nagra model and also the render Pete (Solo) had made of it which gives it all its sense.

                                            This little recorder made a big impact on the motion picture industry in the sixties.

                                            You are absolutely right: beginning with this material and with light weight blimp cameras (as Arriflex or Eclair Coutant)it was then possible to shout pictures in the real world, far from the studios.

                                            In the eighties a micro nagra had appeared. It was then the must for each sound engineer: 😉 👍 👍

                                            Dear honolulu, how is it possible that you, living in Hawaii knows and love this first film of our french director Jean Jacques Beneix???
                                            Wahou! This leads me far in the past to the early eighties when I was crazy with movies (each day a movie and sometime I was keeping myself into the theater to see the same film 2 our 3 times..)
                                            1981: with Diva, I remember very well I had believed that Something was born.

                                            Do you know this following one ❓ :
                                            La Lune dans le caniveau - Jean-Jacques Beineix - extrait 1
                                            La Lune dans le caniveau - Jean-Jacques Beineix - extrait

                                            And also I must say I love this music sung by Wilhelmenia Wiggins Fernandez: "Ebben, ne andro lontana" La Wally _ composed by Alfredo Catalani in 1892.

                                            Here are some famous other interpretations:
                                            "Ebben, ne andro lontana" by Renata Tebaldi _ La Scala 1953
                                            "Ebben, ne andro lontana" by Angela GHEORGHIU
                                            "Ebben, ne andro lontana" by MIRELLA FRENI
                                            and my favorite one:
                                            "Ebben, ne andro lontana" by Maria Callas

                                            Cheers,

                                            simoN
