mackerr Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Hi guys, Can anyone point me towards a reasonably priced MIDI Timecode to SMPTE converter? Many thanks, Martin What does "reasonably priced" mean? For US$350 there is the JLCooper PPS-2. If you can get one used the now discontinued MOTU Miditimepiece AV will work. There seems to be a few on eBay Mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scjb Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 WRT the JLCooper, be aware that if you wish to convert MTC to SMPTE, then you need to make sure you get the PPS-2 Plus option fitted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gareth Owen Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 I use the Rosendahl MIF3 with great results. It's probably not what you'd call reasonably priced though - £800 ($1200 for Mr. Kerr) on Dolphin... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackerr Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 WRT the JLCooper, be aware that if you wish to convert MTC to SMPTE, then you need to make sure you get the PPS-2 Plus option fitted. The website seems to imply that if you are buying a new one the Plus option (not an option?) is included. On a used one it may have to be added.

dbuckley Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Here on eBay. 4 days to go... (And it looks much better in black - mine is white...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesperrett Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Here on eBay. That one only does SMPTE to MIDI - the original question was asking about the other way round. I've found that the JL Cooper stuff isn't as good at locking on to SMPTE as other gear (Fostex and MOTU) but probably fine for MTC to SMPTE. James.

scjb Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 To be honest, the JLCooper wasn't the best thing at locking to MTC either, but it did the job... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are, of course, correct: apologies to the OP. Thats what happens when one don't use a gadget this century, one forgets the detail... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
