About TimeCode Systems SyncBac Pro Timecode Sync System for GoPro HERO4 - SKU#1104417

Timecode sync for GoPro
Simply clip the SyncBac PRO to a HERO4 Black or Silver camera to create a professional standard wearable camera that timecode syncs not only with other GoPros, but also any professional video and audio equipment.

Wireless workflows
The SyncBac PRO seamlessly integrates GoPros into a professional production workflow when used in conjunction with Timecode Systems wireless timecode and metadata technology.

Clip & go
The SyncBac PRO is a customized solution for GoPro. Simply clip it to the back of the HERO4 via the HeroBus 30 pin port. No external connectors required. This keeps the GoPro as small and light as possible and means it s fully compatible with HERO4 standard BacPac backdoor housings.

Seamless sync
Upload GoPro footage into your chosen editing package (AVID Media Composer, Apple Final Cut Pro X and Adobe Premiere PRO are all compatible) and treat it the same as a file from a traditional film or broadcast camera. Use as an MP4 or transcode to Apple ProRes or Avid DNxHD - the timecode remains stable.

SyncBac PRO integrates GoPro footage seamlessly into a professional production workflow in three ways

Timecode sync multiple GoPros
Attach a SyncBac PRO to every unit and timecode sync multiple HERO4 Black and Silver units via long range wireless BLINK RF. Simply make one GoPro the master unit and use the SyncBac PRO to timecode sync unlimited GoPro slaves. The BLINK RF protocol is how Timecode Systems products communicate with each other and how timecode, metadata and control commands travel between units.

Timecode sync with pro cameras & pro audio devices
When docked with a SyncBac PRO, GoPro HERO4 Black and Silver cameras integrate perfectly into a Timecode Systems production workflow. This means they can wirelessly timecode sync with any professional camera and audio equipment using a :pulse, :wave or:minitrx+ unit for timecode.

Wireless monitoring & control
When connected to the BLINK Hub dashboard via a :pulse, SyncBac PRO users can remotely control and monitor multiple GoPros from any smartphone (iOS or Android), tablet or Mac computer. This, among other things, unlocks the capability to adjust camera settings and record start/stop remotely - a great way to maximize a GoPro s battery life when it s gear-mounted or not easily accessible.

The SyncBac PRO is a simple solution enabled by the innovative application of Timecode Systems robust wireless workflow technology
