Musicsoft Syncman (MT Aug 89)

muzines.co.uk

Musicsoft's Syncman is a solid entry-level synchronizer that effectively bridges the gap between MIDI and tape, boasting easy setup and flexible features. Its ability to handle both SMPTE and FSK codes is commendable, offering versatility for budget-conscious musicians. However, its performance can falter with tempo changes, leading to potential timing issues. While the Syncman is reliable and functionally robust, it faces stiff competition from established players like the JL Cooper PPS1, which offers additional features. Ultimately, it's a valuable tool for those needing a straightforward sync solution, but users should weigh its limitations against the benefits.
