When using timecode
Timecode overview
SMPTE timecode can be input to the F3 using an UltraSync BLUE made by Timecode Systems.
Timecode is time information written to data when recording video and audio. It is used for video editing,
control of other devices, and synchronization of audio and video, for example.
NOTE:
• A Timecode Systems UltraSync BLUE cannot be used during audio interface operation. (→ Using as an
audio interface)
• The F3 cannot be simultaneously connected to F3 Control and an UltraSync BLUE.
Using timecode for editing
If video and audio data both have recorded timecode, aligning them to a timeline and synchronizing them
together is easy when using nonlinear editing software for editing.
