3. Sync Sound Another option is to sync audio and video by matching time code. Each frame is assigned a unique address HH:MM:SS.FF The 702T embeds TC into each wav file, and if you have a TC capable camera you can automatically sync your audio to picture. If you choose to sync sound for your MOS you will do it manually.
