Stelladat II’s Options
Stelladat II offers several options allowing either to improve its performances or to respond
particularly to an application wished by the user. All options ca be installed afterwards, together
or at once by SONOSAX or its authorized service centers.
Time Code Option
The Time Code option is essential for for film or TV intended sound recordings, but also very
useful in other fields, in particular if editing on a DAW is considered or a a precise locating on
tape is necessary. Time Code provides a mean to identify uniquely every frame on a tape, i.e.
every 25ieth or 30ieth of a second (depending of the standard used). It consists of a time
marking on tape allowing later access in a highly precise and fast way any to spot of the
recording. It's unavoidable every time a sound recording must keep track of the precise instant it
was made or when the recorded audio must run synchronous with a picture on whatever
medium.
The Locator, Chase and Remote modes are all based on Time Code.
Stelladat II's Time Code meets the worldwide recognized AES/EBU international standard.
