Tentacle Sync E Timecode Generator
Friday pickup, Monday return counts as one day.
Description
The Tentacle Sync E Mk2 is the industry-default standalone LTC timecode generator, TCXO crystal, SMPTE 12M LTC out a 3.5mm jack, Bluetooth jam sync via the Tentacle Setup app, and roughly 35 hours of runtime per charge. We jam all our units in the morning via the app's Sync All function, every camera, the MixPre-6 II, every audio recorder lands on the same time-of-day timecode in seconds. Drift is roughly 0.5 frames per 8-hour day, well inside the tolerance for any post workflow. We stock four units, enough for every camera plus the audio recorder on a typical 3-4 camera shoot. Output level switches between mic level (mirrorless cameras with 3.5mm input) and line level (Alexa LEMO, MixPre TC input). Built-in clip mounts on cold shoes, cages, or anything you can Velcro it to.
