Product Overview
The Tentacle Sync TRACK E 32-Bit Float Timecode Recorder with Lavalier Mic combines professional 48 kHz mono recording, wired and wireless timecode synchronization, and an included omnidirectional lavalier microphone in a compact talent-worn recorder. Its 32-bit float recording mode provides additional headroom for interviews, documentaries, journalism, multicamera shoots, and location sound workflows where levels can change unexpectedly. Bluetooth app control gives crews remote access to synchronization and recorder operation while the unit remains mounted on talent.
32-Bit Float Recording for Unpredictable Dialogue
TRACK E records mono audio at 48 kHz with selectable 32-bit float or 24-bit recording. The 32-bit float mode provides additional level latitude when talent moves between quiet speech and louder dialogue, reducing the need to constantly adjust input gain during interviews and location production.
Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone Included
The TR1-US package includes an interchangeable omnidirectional lavalier microphone that connects through the locking 3.5 mm microphone input. Its omnidirectional pickup pattern helps keep dialogue consistent when talent turns their head, making the system practical for documentary interviews, journalism, presentations, and creator production.
Wired and Wireless Timecode Synchronization
TRACK E supports wired timecode input and output together with wireless synchronization for compatible Tentacle workflows. Multiple recorders can share a common time reference, helping editors align separately recorded dialogue with camera footage during multicamera, documentary, interview, and production sound workflows.
Locking 3.5 mm Microphone Connection
A locking 3.5 mm TRS microphone input helps keep the lavalier cable secured during talent-worn recording. The input provides 5 V plug-in power for compatible microphones and supports the included lavalier as well as other compatible locking 3.5 mm microphones.
Bluetooth Control with the Tentacle Setup App
Bluetooth 5.0 connects TRACK E to the Tentacle Setup App on compatible iOS and Android devices for remote control and configuration. Crews can manage recorder settings and synchronization without removing the recorder from talent, helping streamline multi-recorder and location sound setups.
Limiter and Low-Cut Filter for Dialogue Recording
Built-in signal processing includes a limiter and low-cut filter to support clean spoken-word recording in the field. The low-cut filter can reduce unwanted low-frequency energy, while the limiter provides additional peak management when working in 24-bit recording mode.
Up to 10-Hour Battery Runtime
The built-in rechargeable battery supports up to approximately 10 hours of operation for extended interviews, documentary shoots, events, and production days.
110 dB Dynamic Range
A specified 110 dB dynamic range supports detailed dialogue capture across a broad range of recording levels in professional audio-for-video workflows.
Compact 58 g Talent-Worn Design
The 58 g recorder clips directly to talent with the included belt clip, keeping the recording system compact for interviews, presenters, journalists, and mobile production crews.
Record Talent Directly with Timecode-Synced Lavalier Audio
Clip the TRACK E and included omnidirectional lavalier microphone directly to talent for isolated dialogue recording during interviews, documentaries, journalism, and field production. Timecode provides a common timing reference that helps align separately recorded audio with camera footage during post-production.
Synchronize Multiple TRACK E Recorders Across a Production
Multiple TRACK E units can be synchronized through the Tentacle ecosystem so each person can carry an independent recorder while sharing the same time reference. This workflow is practical for panel discussions, multicamera interviews, reality production, music sessions, and multi-talent shoots.
Simplify Dialogue Synchronization in Post-Production
TRACK E can jam-sync from an external LTC source or work with compatible Tentacle devices for wireless synchronization. Matching timecode references reduce manual alignment work when combining isolated dialogue tracks with footage from cameras, recorders, and other production devices.
