p>The original version of Procoder was developed in the 1980s by Jon Tapp, working with other programmers and researchers at Vanderbilt University's Kennedy Center. It ran on the Apple IIe using analog VHS editing equipment. When DOS-based PCs became popular, the program was re-written using a serial control box to read and write SMPTE time code, and to control an analog tape deck. This system was used at the Kennedy Center and other research facilities for many years.
