Generate

SMPTE LTC at every ST 12-1 rate, from a start address, a countdown or the time of day. Locked to the audio clock so it never drifts.

Chase

Follow incoming timecode, freewheel through dropouts and regenerate a clean signal for everything downstream.

Route

Send one clock out as LTC, MIDI Time Code, TCNet and Art-Net at the same time, each with its own offset.

Follow the decks

Read Pro DJ Link players directly: playhead, BPM, on-air and tempo-master handoffs drive the show.

Remote control

Drive the transport from an iPad, a browser, OSC or plain text commands over HTTP and WebSocket. Phones monitor the show.

Never miss a frame

A warm spare follows every frame. Switch over with one click, or let Chronos Studio fail over automatically with no timecode jump.
