Emergency Backup Format

As stated in the Concept Unification Installation Manual, the emergency backup tapes were used in the event of a deck failure. A deck failure would mean the store would need to order a consumer stereo deck as a replacement, which could not support the 4-channel audio of a standard showtape. A standard tape had audio on Hifi left/right, with the programming signals on linear left/right, while the emergency tape duplicated the signals to both linear and Hifi left, and the audio to both linear and Hifi right. This resulted in the birthday signals being lost, with only the standard shows being able to play.

Trivia:

  • The first show in the Post-93 format, which shifted bits around to stop previous shows from playing.
  • Country Dancin' is mislabeled as Home On The Range
  • The video for Chuck E.'s Place has been updated with footage from various training videos.
  • The Emergency Show variant removed the pizza countdowns during the intermissions.
