Tascam CG-1800 Master Clock/Video Sync Precision Generator

Introducing the Tascam CG-1800 Master Clock Generator
The Tascam CG-1800 Master Clock Multi-Output Precision Generator is crafted for the ultimate in synchronization across NTSC, PAL, and HD Tri-level video and word clock formats. This device is indispensable for professionals in music production, broadcasting, and post-production environments who require a highly stable and reliable clock source to maintain audio and video synchronization seamlessly.

Unmatched Clock Precision and Stability
At the heart of the CG-1800 lies a high-precision OCXO (oven-controlled crystal oscillator) that offers an exceptional frequency precision of ±0.01ppm and stability of ±0.005ppm per day, ensuring minimal impact from temperature fluctuations. This level of accuracy is vital for maintaining synchronization in professional recording and broadcasting environments, reducing jitter and external clock anomalies effectively.

Advanced Connectivity and High Flexibility
Equipped with multiple output options, the CG-1800 features 4 video outputs and 12 word clock outputs, alongside dual AES3/11 and S/PDIF digital outputs. This extensive connectivity supports the construction of large-scale synchronization systems and is fully compatible with popular DAW systems like Pro Tools, enhancing workflow efficiency across various media platforms.

Enhanced Operational Features for Professional Use
The CG-1800 is not just about keeping time; it offers features designed to enhance user experience and reliability. The glitch-free relock circuit prevents synchronization issues during clock dropouts, while a comprehensive logging function and GPO parallel output assist in troubleshooting and system checks, ensuring continuous operation without disruptions.

User-Friendly Maintenance and Robust Design
Maintenance is simplified with self-calibration functions that allow easy adjustments to maintain accuracy over time. The durable construction includes nut-coupling Amphenol BNC connectors for robust physical connections, and independent circuit boards for each connector minimize the risk of contact failures, proving that the CG-1800 is built to last under rigorous use.
