Left = LTC Timecode · Right = Microphone
The C15 routes Tentacle audio timecode to the camera's left channel and the connected external microphone to the right channel.
This keeps the timecode and microphone signals separated while using a single stereo 3.5mm camera input.
Add LTC Without Losing External Mic Audio
Record Tentacle timecode and external microphone audio simultaneously through a compatible stereo camera input.
Keep LTC on Its Own Audio Channel
Record LTC separately from the microphone signal so the timecode track can be identified during synchronization.
Use One Camera Input for Two Signals
Combine Tentacle timecode and external microphone audio without adding a separate recorder to a compact camera rig.
