Saramonic TC-NEO Wireless Timecode Generator

Saramonic TC-NEO Wireless Timecode Generator — A compact SMPTE 12M timecode generator that keeps cameras and recorders locked with less than one frame of drift over 48 hours. It outputs linear or audio timecode through a locking 3.5 mm port and runs in Master Run, Auto Jam, or Jam Once and Lock mode at frame rates from 23.98 to 60 fps. Units sync to each other over 2.4 GHz with no phone required, through the Saramonic System app over Bluetooth for up to 48 devices, or by cable from an external timecode source, and a TC-NEO can act as the timecode master for Saramonic K9 transmitters.

In audio timecode mode, timecode records to the left channel while the built-in omnidirectional mic records reference audio on the right, giving cameras without a timecode input both a sync track and a scratch track. A 1.1″ OLED display and control knob handle settings, and the built-in 1150 mAh battery runs 22 hours. Available as a single unit or as a 3-unit kit with a charging case that powers all three units, switches their displays to a running clock, and includes locking 3.5 mm, BNC, and right-angle 5-pin LEMO timecode cables.
