Tentacle Sync Track E

Tentacle Sync Track E hire in Melbourne. A tiny 32 bit float body pack recorder with a lav, for when you need audio on talent but a radio mic on them is a risk you can't take.

Tentacle Lav recorder hire is the backup that saves the shoot. The Track E clips on the talent, records the lav straight to a micro SD card and never drops out, because there's no radio link to drop. It records 32 bit float, so if the talent shouts into it or whispers, the levels can be recovered in post instead of clipping. Small, light and easy to hide. Lock in a lav, hit record and let it do its thing. The Tentacle app syncs it over Bluetooth with your cameras and your main sound kit, so the edit lines up.

We've run it on reality and adventure shoots, including The Amazing Race Australia, where talent is running, swimming and climbing and a radio mic would never survive. It runs up to 10 hours on one charge and comes as a full kit, ready to clip on.

Good for: documentary, reality, adventure shoots, interviews, hidden recorder setups, vehicles, production backups and any talent too far away or too busy for a radio link.

Good to know: Comes with a Tentacle omni lav, a micro SD card, a belt clip, an ID band and the USB C leads. It records, it doesn't transmit, so nobody hears it live.
