Universal conversion
Translate formats without rebuilding the timing chain.
Route LTC, MIDI Time Code, IRIG-A/B and network protocols through three independently configured hardware outputs.
GPS-disciplined universal timing system
One master clock.
Every timing language.
Aion unifies professional timecode, network timing, video overlay, LTC embedding, touchscreen operation and distributed control in one production-ready 3U appliance.

The Aion advantage
One timing authority replacing a collection of disconnected boxes.
Aion accepts, generates, converts and distributes professional timing formats while presenting the same operational interface at the rack, in a browser, on remote displays and through tactile Stream Deck control.
Disciplined precision
Bring facility clocks back to one GPS reference.
Operate as a PTP Grandmaster and Stratum 1 NTP server while maintaining coherent timecode distribution.
Integrated video
Overlay and embed without adding another appliance.
Pass video from SD through 4K30, generate broadcast-quality overlays and embed live LTC into a selected audio channel.
Timing architecture
Every output derives from the same disciplined source.
Hardware timecode, network timing, remote control and video integration remain coordinated through Aion’s central authority.
Operating modes
A timing instrument that changes with the production.
Conversion
Timecode routing
Receive one timing source and distribute independently formatted outputs with individual frame rates and offsets.
Production
Elapsed timer
Use transport controls, step navigation, GOTO presets and multiple display formats for repeatable event timing.
Presentation
Speaker timer
Build speaker presets, countdown warnings, customized messages and confidence-monitor overlays.
Studio
MIDI Beat Clock
Generate 24-PPQN beat clock, use professional time signatures, tap tempo and a two-voice metronome.
The ultra-wide Beat Clock view remains near its native aspect ratio rather than being enlarged into a soft full-screen image.
Speaker timing
Preset-driven countdowns with messages the presenter cannot miss.
Build individual speaker profiles, set warning and critical thresholds, recall them instantly, and place the countdown directly over presenter video or on a clean black feed for downstream keying.
Welcome state: speaker name, starting duration and configurable presentation styling.
Warning state: independent message, color, border and flash behavior.
Video overlay + LTC embedding
Put timing directly into the signal path.
Configure overlay position, typography, color, opacity, border and display fields from the browser interface. Aion can also stripe live LTC onto one selected audio channel from 1 through 16.
- SDI or HDMI configuration selected for the intended workflow
- Automatic format detection from SD through UHD 4K30
- Optional frame-rate and user-bits display
- GENLOCK status confirmation for frame-locked operation
Operator interfaces
Control at the rack. Work from anywhere else.
The built-in touchscreen and network browser expose the same operational system. Viewer displays and Stream Deck control extend timing status and tactile operation across the production.
Network + hardware timing
Legacy timing, IP timing and show control share one reference.
Aion combines purpose-built connectors with network services so facilities can bridge existing equipment into modern timing and control systems.

Deployment environments
Professional timing without the traditional infrastructure burden.
Broadcast + post
Multi-format synchronization
Unify cameras, recording, post-production and facility network clocks from a GPS-disciplined source.
Live events + corporate AV
Distributed show timing
Control countdowns from front-of-house while speakers, backstage teams and technical staff see synchronized views.
Studios + production
Music and picture timing
Keep DAWs, MIDI equipment, video systems and external timecode workflows aligned through independent outputs.
Aion in mobile production
Universal timing that travels with the production.
Aion is built for crews that move between trucks, venues, studios and temporary control rooms. Its integrated touchscreen, browser administration, Stream Deck control, GPS discipline and multi-format outputs provide a consistent timing authority without requiring a permanent facility installation.
Rack once. Operate anywhere.
Keep timing control at the operator position.
Mount Aion in the truck or equipment rack, then run conversion, countdown, overlay and monitoring workflows from the browser or Stream Deck at the production desk.
- GPS-disciplined timing for changing locations
- SDI or HDMI video configuration
- LTC, MIDI, IRIG and network protocol distribution
- Viewer displays for production, talent and technical teams
