Tentacle Sync TRACK E Pocket Audio Recorder with Lavalier (US Version)
The Tentacle Sync TRACK E is a pocket audio recorder with timecode, and this set includes Tentacle’s omnidirectional lavalier microphone with its clip and windjammer.
Small enough to sit in a pocket or on a belt, it records the lav at the talent instead of sending it over a wireless link. It records mono at 48 kHz in 32-bit float or 24-bit to a microSD card, and the set includes a 16 GB card. The lockable 3.5 mm input supplies 5 V plug-in power, so other lavaliers work with it too.
32-Bit Float Recording
In 32-bit float mode the recording has no gain to get wrong: a quiet track can be raised in post without raising the noise floor, and loud peaks do not clip. A 24-bit mode with a limiter is there for workflows that need it, and a low-cut filter takes out rumble.
Timecode and Control
The TRACK E syncs to other Tentacle devices over Bluetooth or by cable jam-sync, and it can also run alone. The Tentacle Setup App starts and stops recording, sets levels, and monitors the audio wirelessly on iOS and Android, for one recorder or many. Several TRACK E units record individual mono tracks that line up into a multitrack recording in post, and every recorder includes a Tentacle Sync Studio license for macOS.
