It was presented at the IBC 2019, delivery was supposed to start in March 2020, but now the production of the Track E audio decoder with timecode recording of the Cologne-based synchronization specialists Tentacle Sync has finally started.
Until now, Tentacle Sync solved the often problematic synchronization of external audio recorded by an audio recorder with the video source (e.g. from a video DSLR or in multicam setups) by providing a uniform timecode and synchronizing all devices with it or adding it to all recordings via its 
Tentacle Sync E Box.
Tentacle Sync Track E
The new Tentacle Sync Track E can be used just like the Sync E as a pure timecode sync box, but also works as a stand-alone Set&Forget audio recorder with timecode. It records audio in high quality 32Bit floating-point with wide dynamic range on microSD card and is controlled via Bluetooth via App (iOS/Android) and synchronized with other Tentacle Sync Boxes.
Once synchronized with a time code via cable or app, all Tentacle Sync devices run independently of each other over a period of 24 hours with an offset of less than one frame and are therefore independent of a permanent wireless connection for synchronization.
The Track E delivers up to 6V (a kind of phantom power on a semi-professional level) via its screwable 3.5m jack microphone input Plugin
Power and can supply some microphones with power. However, it has hardly any manual controls and no display and is therefore completely dependent on the control via app.
Tentacle Sync Track E
The Tentacle Track E is only slightly larger than the Sync E (so it's quite small) and has an internal, non-replaceable battery, an input limiter and a high pass filter. The headphone output can be used to monitor the recorded sound.
The Tentacle Sync Track E audio decoder can be pre-ordered now at a price of 370 Euro (including VAT) and will be delivered in 2 weeks. The package includes a universal lavalier microphone with clip and windshield, a 16 GB SD card, a USB-C to USB-A and a USB-A to USB-C cable as well as a Tentacle Sync Studio software license (Mac).
