Tentacle Sync TIMEBAR Timecode Slate & Display

About: Tentacle Sync TIMEBAR Timecode Slate & Display

The TIMEBAR Timecode Slate is our all-in-one digital timecode slate kit, designed for seamless integration with the entire Tentacle Sync ecosystem. We‘ve collaborated with premium slate maker Filmsticks to create this unique, versatile solution. The kit includes the TIMEBAR — our multipurpose timecode display — paired with a high-quality board, clapper sticks and a custom holder, that also serves as a mount for the TIMEBAR. This lightweight, yet robust, setup not only enhances portability but offers flexibility on set. The TIMEBAR can be swiftly attached or detached from the slate, functioning independently as a timer, message display or stopwatch, whether mounted or not, all controlled effortlessly via our Setup App.

The OLED display not only provides high contrast, but also ensures low energy consumption, allowing the TIMEBAR to last throughout the entire day. 

Additionally, the slate is built for longevity, with every component being user-replaceable. Even the long-lasting built-in lithium battery can be easily swapped by users after years of use, ensuring continued reliability. The TIMEBAR Timecode Slate is the ultimate tool for precise timecode management and efficient production workflows.
