BLINK Hub

Free, multiplatform and convenient remote monitoring and control.

Work smarter with BLINK Hub

It’s multi-tasking made easy.

Enjoy complete wireless remote control of synchronisation. Keep an eye on battery levels. Get more from your Sound Devices metadata. Send global commands to a whole army of GoPros; even those rigged in difficult to access locations. BLINK Hub transforms the way you work by giving you access to the complete production workflow directly from your smartphone, desktop or tablet. And with BLINK RF powering everything you do, you can rely on a robust exchange of information wherever you are – in the studio, on set or on location.

Monitor

Get a snapshot of sync status and keep an eye on battery and memory card levels. BLINK Hub makes it easy to track what’s happening with not only your Timecode Systems products but also Sound Devices 6-Series mixer/recorders and GoPro HERO4 cameras using SyncBaC PRO.

Control

Change the settings of your Timecode Systems units centrally. Switch multiple GoPros in a VR rig on simultaneously. And keep an eye on GoPro camera settings on the same screen too. You can even set a Sound Devices mixer/recorder to record and arm/disarm tracks from your tablet.

Customise

Personalise each unit with a name. Call it ‘Camera 1’, ‘Presenter camera’ or ‘Pit lane camera’… whatever makes most sense to you. Group units into colours and assign unique names for Sound Devices tracks. Sometimes the little things make a huge difference.
