Under orders from Luther Gulick, head of physical education there, Naismith was given 14 days to create an indoor game that would provide an "athletic distraction" Gulick demanded that it would not take up much room, could help its track athletes to keep in shape and explicitly emphasized to "make it fair for all players and not too rough". At the Springfield YMCA, Naismith struggled with a rowdy class that was confined to indoor games throughout the harsh New England winter, thus was perpetually short-tempered. It used a peach basket attached to the wall.Īfter completing the YMCA Physical Director training program that had brought him to Springfield, Naismith was hired as a full-time faculty member in 1891. Springfield College: invention of basketball īasket Ball The original 1891 "Basket Ball" court in Springfield College. Naismith played football during his one year as a student at Springfield, where he was coached by Amos Alonzo Stagg and scored a touchdown in the first exhibition of indoor college football at Madison Square Garden. From 1888 to 1890, Naismith taught physical education and became the first McGill director of athletics, but then left Montreal to study at the YMCA International Training School in Springfield, Massachusetts. ![]() At the end of his career, in 19, he would receive honorary doctorates from both institutions. Naismith earned a BA in physical education (1888) and a diploma at the Presbyterian College in Montreal (1890). He won multiple Wicksteed medals for outstanding gymnastics performances. He played centre on the football team, and made himself some padding to protect his ears. Although described as a slight figure, standing 5 feet 10 + 1⁄ 2 inches (1.791 m) and listed at 178 pounds (81 kg) he was a talented and versatile athlete, representing McGill in football, lacrosse, rugby, soccer, and gymnastics. In the same year, Naismith entered McGill University in Montreal. Then, he enrolled in Almonte High School, in Almonte, Ontario, from which he graduated in 1883. Orphaned early in his life, Naismith lived with his aunt and uncle for many years and attended grade school at Bennies Corners near Almonte. To play duck on a rock most effectively, Naismith soon found that a soft lobbing shot was far more effective than a straight hard throw, a thought that later proved essential for the invention of basketball. Gifted in farm labor, Naismith spent his days outside playing catch, hide-and-seek, or duck on a rock, a medieval game in which a person guards a large drake stone from opposing players, who try to knock it down by throwing smaller stones at it. The "A" was added by someone in administration at the University of Kansas. ![]() Despite some sources to the contrary Naismith never had a middle name and never signed his name with an "A" initial.

He then arrived at the University of Kansas, later becoming the Kansas Jayhawks' athletic director and coach. Seven years after inventing basketball, Naismith received his medical degree in Denver in 1898. Naismith studied and taught physical education at McGill University in Montreal until 1890 before moving to Springfield, Massachusetts, United States later that year, where in 1891 he designed the game of basketball while he was teaching at the International YMCA Training School. Naismith lived to see basketball adopted as an Olympic demonstration sport in 1904 and as an official event at the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin, as well as the birth of the National Invitation Tournament (1938) and the NCAA Tournament (1939). After moving to the United States, he wrote the original basketball rule book and founded the University of Kansas basketball program.

Avid SYNC HD attains near sample-accurate lock to serial timecode (through RS-422), LTC, or bi-phase/tach signals, incorporating a high-fidelity, low-jitter master Word Clock that supports operations up to 192 kHz, as well as standard pull-up/pull-down rates for film and video applications. Think of a sync HD as an insurance premium you don't like to pay for it but when you need it your sure glad you got it.Keep even your largest Pro Tools|HD and audio-video productions in total sync. Then you have to align it yourself and you gotta really trust the audio/video sync on your system to do that. I would never mix a film without a SYNC HD because from my experience editors will often try to align audio on their own and then you're stuck with out of sync audio with picture. I mix with and without SYNC HD all the time usually with no problems. So although it is cheaper, you're going to have problems. Most SYNC I/O settings are available directly from within Pro Tools. SYNC I/O with Pro Tools Pro ToolsHD With Pro ToolsHD, SYNC I/O pro-vides highly accurate lock to time code. Would not recommend they are "supported" but in my experience and others, that's a bit a white lie because their software sucks. SYNC I/O can also be used as a stand-alone syn-chronization device. And yes, Blackmagic drivers for ProTools systems suck. What you also want is an application called Catchin' Sync for your iPhone. This can make a difference if your trying to align audio to picture and vice versa. With it, you won't get that variance or jitter. I mean, the newer ProTools will give you sync accurate 1-2 quarter frames.maybe less. I think Mike Thorton did a test with this in a blog post you might want to search for. Without, you get jitter meaning your sync will be variable within a quarter of a frame or so. The Sync X master oscillator runs at 100 MHz, which Avid say is twice as fast as typical JetPLL-based clocks and twice as accurate. You can go without but the edges of your frames won't be locked and perfectly aligned. Lock to sources quickly and accurately - With exceptionally low jitter JetPLL clocking technology, Sync X locks to external sources faster and more accurately than its predecessor, the Pro Tools SYNC HD. That is why there can be a variance of audio-video sync upon each start of play (without a syncHD).īasically, you get much more accurate picture frame edges if you use Tri-sync with a Gen 10 sync generator and a SYNC HD. Some people insist that they are always in perfect sync with a T-Tap, or their desktop monitors, or whatever, but without a SyncHD there is no mechanism by which Pro Tools can see exactly where the video frame edges are in time, and thus cannot accurately place its audio samples to line up. Its a must have for Pro Tools HD professionals in commercial music and post-production facilities. ![]() If you will accept audio-video sync that is repeatable only within roughly 1/4 to 1/2 video frame each time playback begins, you can do that without the expense of a syncHD, and frankly without any video card. If you want audio-video sync that is repeatable within a few audio samples each time playback begins, you need a syncHD and video reference to both both it and your video card. I would assume that YOU want to do better than them! If they are always a frame out of sync, they did not properly measure or adjust for the particular video display. I've been in audio studios where they have got the HD Sync yet they are monitoring on a large HD screen which I know to be nearly a frame out anyway so is it really worth the extra 2k for that extra few milliseconds of accuracy? ![]() I understand that the HD Sync gives you better frame accuracy but what I can't understand is why a system costing 10k needs another 2k worth of hardware to get it accurate?
