Author Topic: FS: Kelmar docker Scott Norwood Film God Posts: 8146 From: Boston, MA. USA (1774.21 miles northeast of Dallas) Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-06-2011 12:54 PM                        Edit: this item is now sold; thanks for the interest One Kelmar docker main frame and one mounting plate. Both are in good condition. $25 plus shipping. For those who have not see these, the unit allows digital penthouse readers to be easily and quickly attached to and removed from a film projector head. The theory is that it allows a multiplex with a mix of readers and processors to move the readers around within the booth depending upon which prints carry which digital soundtracks. Does anyone still do this? They were popular in the 1990s.... I suppose that it would also be useful in a single screen theatre with multiple digital sound formats but insufficient ceiling height to have multiple readers mounted at once. It requires one base mounting plate per reader and one main frame per projector. I have no use for this. Maybe you do. More information is here.
