The Brainstorm SR-112 is a rack-mount time code distributor and analyzer intended for rental use where reliable distribution and on-the-fly diagnostics are needed. It combines a 12-output, buffered distributor with real-time analysis and a reshaper to restore clean time code over long cable runs. The front panel provides an 8-digit time code reader and an LCD status display to make monitoring and troubleshooting straightforward during events or productions.

Key Features

• 12 buffered outputs for robust, low-loss distribution to multiple devices.
• Real-time error identification, reporting dropouts and other time code faults on the LCD and in reports.
• Time code reshaper that delivers stable, clean code even over long cable runs, ideal for live environments.
• Supports all modern SMPTE and EBU SD/HD frame rates, ensuring compatibility across broadcast and production equipment.
• Large 8-digit reader and LCD display for immediate visual confirmation of format, frame rate, and error status.
• Individually adjustable output levels and buffered outputs to eliminate amplitude distortion and level fluctuations.

Use Cases

• Live broadcast and multi-camera shoots that require reliable distribution of a single time code source to multiple recorders.
• Installations where long cable runs have caused time code degradation, and reshaping is needed to maintain sync.
• Situations requiring diagnostic reporting and quick detection of video phase and time code errors.

Included with your rental
