In this video I quickly test to get timecode from my Sound Devices 833 into my Blackmagic Design HyperDeck Studio Mini via a Blackmagic Audio to SDI MiniConverter. Timecode will be embedded as an additional audio track that you can later on read in applications like DaVinci Resolve. This will not only work with the 833, but with any device sending LTC as an audio signal such as a Tentacle Sync E.

And yes, the setup in my video is not really permanent, but only meant for quick testing. I will later on re-assemble that and fix the dangling devices ...

Gear I used:

Sound Devices 833 with NoiseAssist and slight Compression
Zaxcom ZMT3 and QRX200, connected via AES into the 833
VoiceTechnologies VT-500
GoPro Hero 7 Black
Izotope RX8 Advanced for getting rid of all that noise from the fans
Tentacle Sync E with a LEMO 5-pin cable for getting TC into the 833
