The  T  10  Projector  was  introduced  in  1956  as  a
          totally  new  concept.  This  blue-coloured  projector
          was fitted with, at that time, a very modern 12 V 100
          W projection bulb. It has only one speed, namely 16
          frames/sec and it is suitable for only one voltage. All
          the projectors of the T 10 series came with a plastic
          dust hood, which could be used as a projection table.
          Because of this design, it was possible to construct a
          smaller projector suitable for 120 m reels. This pro-
          jector  is  also  suitable  for  combining  with  a  tape
          recorder. The receiver of the electric signal is built
          into the projector. This beautiful but more expensive
          electric system was not used after the T 12 series. It
          was, however, to continue to be found in a Russian
          projector.
                                                          Bauer T 10 Projector
          Three different models were offered for the sound system. First was the Tonkoppler K 1, a simple,
          tape-recorder driven, round disc, which delivered its information to the projector and could add
          music to the movie.

          It was however, better to use the TZ 31 for speech if lip synchronisation was desired. The TZ 31
          has one + and one – button. If, during the projection of the movie, the picture is not in synch, one
          of the buttons could be pushed to correct the problem. The TZ changed its name to Tonkoppler
          N.
          The TZ 30, later called S, became a culminating point of sound registration at that time. It was
          for  tape  speeds  of  9.5  cm/sec  and  19  cm/sec.  The  model  was  provided  with  a  switch  for
          converting reproduction via the projector to recording via
          the movie camera. There is also a potentiometer for adjust-
          ing  running  qualities  of  the  movie  camera  as  well  as  a
          signal lamp to indicate when the camera and the projector
          are in synch. There is a switch contact for the recorder with
          remote  control  and  help  buttons  for  projection.  Bauer
          pointed out the pure synchronisation of this system in their
          advertisements. The maximal deviation in the synchroni-
          sation is ¼ picture = 1/64 sec. This means that, with the TZ
          30 + camera and the TZ 30 + projector, great deviation
          would be prevented, and any discord would come from an
          advance or delay of only 1/32 of a second, approximately
          half of a picture frame by a speed of 16 frames/sec. Quite  TZ 30 Sound Recorder
          an achievement!
                                   If you make such an apparatus, then there must be an appro-
                                   priate sound camera as well. It is the 88 E equipped with a
                                   synchronization contact, which is connected with the TZ 30
                                   by means of 6 meter metre long cable. This device was called
                                   88 ES. The 88 E is also provided with a turret, like the 88 D
                                   and a combination of the 88 ES and the 88 D became the 88
                                   DS.
