Timeline Micro Lynx Synchronizer & Remote Tape Machine


Mint condition in and out. Included is the synchronizer box, remote and cable, & power supply. There's not much else to say about this unit. Everyone looking should know what it does. 100-250v serial # 1340. Also includes two transport sync cables, you can use these to build cables for your specific machine if you dont intend to use them with these specific machines. The cables included are for : (1) Ampex MM-1200 & (1) Sony VO-5850.

The TimeLine Micro Lynx provides an interface for SMPTE and MIDI time code generation, transport synchronizer operations, track enable, automated edit, and events control. The Micro Lynx system features wideband, high speed, 1/10 to 60x play speed, bi-directional time code readers and a multi-standard time code generator. There are two machine controller/synchronizers with software parameter selection for over 120 ports, MIDI ports, GPI and mute relays, and system status outputs. Setup menus provide convenient user access to configure the system for specific applications.

Included in Time Line Micro Lynx System

  • Time Line Micro Lynx System Rack Unit w/power supply

  • Micro Lynx Keyboard w/ Ethernet Comm. cable

  • (2) Time Line Track Machine Control Cables

  • Time Line Micro Lynx System Operating Manual
