New in the PXL suite

Sync every camera and mic by sound, in one go.

Four cameras, two lavs, a recorder and a phone? Send the sequence from Premiere or drop in its XML. Syn lines every clip up by its audio, tells you how sure it is about each one, and hands back a synced timeline, on your own computer.

Latest versionFirst release coming soon · Free and open source · macOS and Windows, with a Premiere Pro panel

Twenty tracks in. One synced timeline out, every clip scored.

Features

Every clip lined up. Every one scored.

No slate, no matching timecode, no nudging waveforms by eye. Syn listens to the audio and does the lining up.

Synced by sound

Syn finds the same moments in every clip’s audio, a clap, a word, a door, and lines the clips up to the frame. Cameras that stopped and started get every take placed.

A confidence score on every clip

Each clip gets a score for how sure Syn is of its sync. Anything low is flagged, so you check one clip instead of the whole timeline.

Built for big shoots

Twenty cameras and mics, or sixty. Tracks group by camera and device and fold away once synced, so the timeline stays readable.

A Premiere Pro panel

Send the open sequence to Syn and get the synced one back, from a panel inside Premiere. No exporting XMLs by hand.

Originals untouched

Syn writes a new XML and a new sequence. Your media is read, never moved, renamed or re-encoded.

How it works

Send it. Syn lines it up.

Use the panel in Premiere, or drag XMLs in and out if you prefer.

Send the sequence

Click Send in the Syn panel in Premiere, or drop an exported XML onto Syn.

Syn listens

It analyses every track’s audio on your computer and lines the clips up, with live progress on each one.

Back to the edit

Check anything flagged, then send the synced sequence back to Premiere or save it as an XML.

Private by design

It runs on your computer. That's it.

Syn never uploads your footage. Audio is analysed on your own computer, so client work and unreleased shoots stay where they are.
