A timecode slate is an essential tool for shooting music videos. The song is played back with a visual timecode information so that the image can be synced to sound in postproduction. The Timecode Slate for the Iphone plays back any song from the Music Library with a visual timecode.

Guten Tag Mathias!
Does your Timecode Slate app do 23.98 fps timecode, or just 24?
Danke!
John
HI John,
in the current version, it only does 24. I will add 23.98 in the next update. It might take a couple of weeks for that, though.
Best,
Matthias
Dear Matthias
Have you thought about including an LTC generator?
My thought was that the iPhone headphone output (or via FM transmitter) could then go to the input of many new digital SLR cameras and the external recorder to lay down LTC tracks for easy cataloguing and syncing.
Best wishes

Hi Darryn,
thanks for your thoughts. I actually have thought about LTC generation, but that is not a trivial subject. I might add this feature later. Stay tuned for the next update that will bring 23.98, cuepoints and some UI streamlining. You actually get a pretty good sync, if you have the visual reference on the DSLR.
Best wishes,
Matthias
ciao matthias,
nehme an, der timecode beginnt mit dem ersten takt an zu laufen.
gibt es die möglichkeit einen vorlauf zu programmieren (z.b. 10sec). so könnte man die musiker einzählen und so einen “kaltstart” vermeiden.
grüsse peter
Hallo Peter,
der Timecode beginnt synchron zum abgespielten Audiofile und holt sich die Zeitinformation quasi vom Ipod, was eine sehr präzise Synchronisierung garantiert, daher ist es nicht ohne weiteres möglich, im Programm einen Vorlauf zu programmieren. Aber Du kannst ja in deinem File einfach einen Klick vorauslaufen lassen, um Dich einzugrooven, bzw. du montierst einfach 10 Sekunden Stille vor das eigentliche Lied, je nach dem, was Du magst.
Beste Grüsse,
Matthias
Matthias,
Have you thought about developing Timecode Slate for the Android market? I as well as many other filmmakers prefer to use this platform vs. the IPhone platform.
Thank you.
Freddie
Hi,
I will stick to the Iphone for now, but you never know…
