The same timecode does not point to the same instant at every frame rate, and that mismatch is exactly what Mirabex Flip is built for. Pad in one timecode and read it back at eight standard frame rates at once. Every line gives you the total frame count, the real length in seconds, and how far drop-frame counting has pulled away from clock time.

Flip the pad over and it becomes an arithmetic desk. Add a duration to a timecode, take one away, and stamp the result as a cue. You can walk forward through a show from its first mark, or work back from a fixed end point, and each step stays in the frame rate you are working in.

The cue list screen is where the job comes together. It lays out the gap between one cue and the next, the length of every item, the total running length, and the drift that has quietly built up along the way. A list that looked fine cue by cue will show you, in one view, where it has slipped.

Mirabex Flip does one thing with no detours: it keeps frame-rate conversion and timecode arithmetic in one place, so the numbers you hand on are the numbers you can stand behind.
