Studio C Alpha Interactive Console
Topic Started: Aug 23 2016, 10:01 AM (5,016 Views)

We recently went on a day trip to the cec in Latham, NY which is just outside of Albany. Our goal was to fully document the studio c alpha interactive console. I thought you guys might be interested, so here you go! We split it up into 2 videos. The first focuses on the cameras and sounds. The second focuses on the activity center.







Do we know how many locations still have this? The ones that I know of that do are: Latham NY, Wyomissing PA, Burlington NJ, and Berwyn PA

It's so awesome to see that this location's console is in perfect condition. Wyomissing's console is almost entirely broken nowadays (It was in perfect order back in 2015), which is really a shame :-/ . It's awesome that you went through the videos on the movie studio section on the console. I haven't been able to see those videos in years. I remember seeing the "Larry the Stagehand", "The Announcer", and "Station Break" on my first ever visit to CEC back in 2007. What memories :wub: . I wonder, if anyone has the footage of the "Announcer" and "Station Break" intermissions? I found the Larry one on CECShow's channel, but I've never been able to find "Announcer" or "Station Break" (Also: For a while I assumed Station Break was really just the Director's Cut Intermission from 1998. Is this true?).

Greenwood used to have it. I think they removed the console and the Avenger cap around 2015 or 2016.

Darn it! Most of the control panels are only in the North-East side of the country :( I still have yet to see a full functioned control panel...

I'm pretty sure Downingtown still has its console. I haven't been there since 2015, so I'm planning on heading back there sometime this year, and I'll confirm the current status of it once I return from there (I'm probably not going to go there until later in the year, though).

Thanks, that would be great! No rush though, whenever you are able to get there is fine.

Yes it was taken off the list as I said in my post above. I was actually the one who figured out it was a cappa not an alpha while I was checking over the list.

Wow, I knew there was a lack of Consoles, but I didn't know there was only 28 ones left! :O That means there are more 3 Stages then there are Interactive Consoles! That means, the amount of consoles left is only only double the amount of Road Stages left!

They had when I went. I think they should have their Blue screenrremoved next to look more like Warwick's Alpha.

I wonder how many of the consoles are actually all working? Some of them seem to have the computer monitor dead.

My question is, how can one store have it, and one not? Does corporate tell the stores to remove them, but some stores don't listen? I've never understood this.

I think stores just decide to remove them on their own when the components stop working (remember that these things are all almost 20 years old by this point).

Interesting, I guess it's the same with the blue screen?

Yeah, those are covered up because the cameras were easily broken and hard to fix / replace.
