In this tutorial, we will show you how to timecode sync a Sound Devices
MixPre-3 audio recorder to an Ambient Nano Lockit.
We will use the following gear: a Sound
Devices MixPre-3 and a camera.
To timecode sync this setup, you will
need two NanoLockits and these two
TC-IO-35RA timecode cables, which are
included when buying a NanoLockit.
Start the NanoLockits by pressing and
holding the power button for three sec-
onds.
The LED will flash green / red, which
means the LEMO timecode output is still
muted.
Press and hold the green button of one
NanoLockit for three seconds until LED
double-blinks green: This sets the time-
code and frame rate, wirelessly syncs all
other NanoLockits and activates all LEMO
outputs.
The NanoLockit always starts with its Real
Time Clock at last frame rate or at default
25 fps.
If successful, all units will flash green in
sync. Which means: they are ready to
sync other devices.
