Q: 1. Is your Soundfish 2 MkII compatable with a Zoom H8 recording device?

A: Yes the Ambient Recording Soundfish 2 MKII Compact Hydrophone with Cable is compatible with the Zoom H8.

Q: 2. for virtual production volumes, can the device be synchronized to an evertz 5700 and then run standalone as a timecode and genlock generator on camera? also maintaining genlock that would normally come from evertz?

A: With the LTC output of the Evertz 5700, you can sync the Ambient Recording ACN-CL Lockit Compact Wireless Timecode Synchronizer in TX mode. As a TX master, the Lockit will adapt to the speed of the LTC signal, and it will regenerate and broadcast the time code and sync to all of the following ACN units. For virtual productions, I would recommend using the Lockit+ (B&H # AMACNLPE) as the TX master as it gives you more insights about the current sync status in its web interface.

Q: 3. It could be used to power the DJI Wireless Follow Focus Motor?

A: I don't think so, since this a custom cable to update firmware and provide power to a Tiny LockIt timecode generator (USB to LEMO 5 pin).

Q: 4. What is the relevance of genlock sync at 1080p or 1080i, can someone elaborate, why does it matter?

A: Cameras can be either set to progressive (p) or interlaced (i) recording format. Depending on the chosen format there is the need for an adapted genlock signal. Ambient Recording ACN-CL Lockit Compact Wireless Timecode Synchronizer are able to provide either p or i. So regardless the recording format all cameras are able to be synced wirelessly.

Q: 5. a recommended distribution amplifier that share TC and genlock with one cable please?

A: A recommended distribution amplifier that could share TC and genlock with one cable on the Ambient Recording ACN-CL Lockit Compact Wireless Timecode Synchronizer would be the AJA C10DA Analog BNC 1x6 Distribution Amplifier, B&H # AJC10DA.

Q: 6. Is this basically a stripped down Master Lockit? Or would this be used in conjunction with a Master?

A: The Lockit ACN-CL replaces the discontinued ACL204 and TinyLockit ACN-TL in terms of functionality. As such it delivers timecode and sync signals such as genlock, wordclock, and PPF required to make it the perfect choice to be an external synchronizer for all kinds of cameras and recorders. It also can be set to act as a C-Jam master to slaves other units when used as the timecode reference on a soundcart, so the sound mixer can comfortably synchronize the set. However it does not feature the sophisticated web interface of the MasterLockit, which is still an active product. These features are based on an additional web server accessible through WiFi which the Lockit lacks both. So, if your customer is looking for sound reporting together with Sound devices 6series and 788T, visual monitoring of synced devices over ACN, metadata processing including a virtual slate, this will always require a MasterLockit.

Q: 7. Can I set the Lockit to mirror my audio recorder's timecode then connect it to my camera, or do I need two devices to accurately sync timecode for both audio recorder and camera?

A: Yes it can however it depends on the audio recorder. Typically the Lockit generates the timecode and you sync the audio recorder + Camera to the Lockit's timecode. Ideally you would use 2 Lockits to sync everything however, It is possible to use just 1 Lockit if you like. You can use the Lockit to generate timecode then sync your audio recorder disconnect the audio recorder and then use the same Lockit to sync your camera. In a scenario like this we recommend re-synching the devices every few hours to make sure that your camera and audio recorder are still in sync.

Q: 8. can I use a split cable to genlock 2 cameras ? Or do I need to devises ?

A: No, you can not split the output from the Ambient Recording ACN-CL Lockit Compact Wireless Synchronizer to sync multiple cameras at once.

Q: 9. Can it do pass-through charging? (i.e., is this fully functional while also plugged in to charge at the same time?)

A: No, the Ambient Recording ACN-CL Lockit Compact Wireless Timecode Synchronizer when plugged in will receive power but will not actively charge also. To charge, it will need to be powered in the off state.

Q: 10. hello does this cable same like Ambient Recording LTC-OUT/EPIC Lockit Timecode Output Cable for Red Epic/Scarlet (16") 5 pin lemo to 4 pin lemo ?

A: This cable is designed for transfer of metadata and specific remote control protocol. We can not guarantee proper functionality if used as an LTC-Output cable. Here is an alternative BH #RECATCL5ML4M.
