Saramonic TC-NEO 3-Kit Timecode Generator with Charging Case
Saramonic TC-NEO 3-Kit – Professional Wireless Timecode Generator with Charging Case
Saramonic TC-NEO 3-Kit is a high-precision timecode system for professional multi-camera and audio workflows. With ±0.5 ppm TCXO accuracy, multiple sync methods, and up to 22 hours of operation per unit, the TC-NEO delivers reliable and accurate sync throughout the recording day.
Built for Extreme Precision
The TC-NEO uses a high-precision TCXO with ±0.5 ppm accuracy and maintains sync with less than 1 frame of deviation over 48 hours. It generates LTC or Audio TC according to SMPTE-12M and works seamlessly with most cameras and audio recorders.
Sync Your Way
Choose between Bluetooth sync via the Saramonic System app (up to 48 devices), direct wireless sync between units via 2.4 GHz, or cable-based jam-sync via a 3.5 mm timecode port. The TC-NEO can also be synced locally without a mobile phone.
Clear Overview with OLED Display
The sharp 1.1" OLED display shows sync status, battery, and frame rate in real time. A compact retro design and structured knob provide quick and precise control on set.
Perfect for Multi-Cam Production
The included charging case holds and charges three units simultaneously, ideal for standardized 3-camera setups. Each TC-NEO has up to 22 hours of operation, and together the system can be used for up to 48 hours. A smart clock function is activated with a button press during charging.
Audio Backup for Secure Post-Production
A built-in omnidirectional microphone provides a secure audio reference. Via a 3.5 mm cable, timecode is recorded on the left channel while ambient sound is recorded on the right – perfect for quick sync in post.
