Matter conversion beaming arrays vs st replicators.(stargate tech vs star trek tech)

which is better the asgard Matter conversion beaming array or the star trek replicator

[jnadreth]

Well, neither are!

The Asgard computer core is what makes the conversion technology brilliant due to the fill in the gaps tech while Star Trek replicators rely on pre-stored patterns to be materiallized. Now that the Goa'uld have cannonly got access to the Beaming tech I would assume that the would run anything and everything they own through the pattern buffer and copy the energy signiture of each item to a computer core so that they could replicate items in the same way Star Trek does.

The difference between the 2 methods is that the Asgard core can create brand new things with very little help-eg like the ARW that Oniell made while with the Goa'uld beaming tech you would have to physically create the peice of technology and run it through the buffer before you can replicate it. Hope I made myself clear

The matter converter, while it cannot manipulate matter on a sub atomic level, it far exceeds the replicator's ability at the extreme ends of macro and nano scale egineering. Capable of reating nanites and large structures with relative ease.

Also the Star Trek replicator does not have Quantum resolution so single bit errors crop up-U ussually see this as main characters complain that the damned replicator cannot get Tomato soup right (Tom Paris-Caretaker Part 1)

k so the Matter conversion beaming array is better

so which is better stargate technology eg-beaming and weapons and ships or star trek technology such as weapons and beaming and ships

stargate tech because we can actually leave our galaxy and explore all of it because our ships are faster.

also in star trek, you cant use the beaming tech while the shield is on but in stargate, you can beam out while the shield is up.

Just to clarify it better for stargate1990
Stargate shields are 1 way shields meaning that your own weaponsfire, fighters, beaming, garbage can be thrown outwards from the ship through the shields. Anything incoming like aforementioned weaponsfire, fighters, beaming and garbage will impact the shield and bounce off according to what it was that hit the thing. Any explaination of Tok'ra one-way shields pretty much covers starship shielding.

This is different to Star Trek as early on they had to drop their shields for a few seconds-then just to confuse everyone they changed it so that their weaponsfire frequencies matched their shield harmonics so that they could pass through (Enterprise D found this out the hard way when the Klingons found said frequency and totalled a state of the art Galaxy Class ship with a 30 year old bird of prey)
