JLCooper Electronics was one of the developers of the MIDI Time Code Standard. In 1987 they designed and manufactured the first hardware that supported MTC. JLCooper continues to engineer the most reliable, affordable, and innovative solutions to solve the complex synchronization challenges in today's studio.
JLCooper's PPS-2 is ideal for anyone who owns a sequencer, drum machine, workstation, or hard disk recording system, and needs to sync to tape.
PPS-2 offers the advantages of several synchronizers in one versatile package. It reads and generates SMPTE time code and converts SMPTE into MIDI Time Code or Direct Time Lock. It also reads and generates JLCooper's "Smart FSK" sync and converts it into MIDI Clock with Song Position Pointer. Jam Sync/Regeneration, Flywheeling, Auto-Merge, and a low price make the PPS-2 the best choice for an affordable synchronizer.
