 TimeCodeVinyl is software that makes it possible to use the standard 
              turntable interface to synchronize various kinds of digital media. 
              The software is designed to fit neatly into existing multimedia 
              development frameworks like pd (http://www.pure-data.org) 
              or jmax (http://www.ircam.fr/ 
              jmax/). TimeCodeVinyl uses a simple analogue synchronization 
              signal that can easily be pressed onto traditional vinyl. This enables 
              users to leave the heavy vinyl records or videotapes at home, replacing 
              them with a standard computer which runs one of the above mentioned 
              programs.
