London UK - TMB proudly announces its new partnership with Backup Tech, UK’s leading charity dedicated to supporting technical professionals, production personnel, and crew working across the live events, music touring, theatre, and broadcast industries.

As part of this initiative, 10% of all UK sales of TMB’s award-winning ProPlex® CodeClock will be donated directly to Backup Tech. These funds will aid in providing crucial financial aid, wellness support and mental health resources to those working behind the scenes in our industry.

The ProPlex CodeClock is a compact, rugged timecode display and distribution unit, winner of the ‘Gear Product of the Year Award’. Its large RGB LED matrix changes color to show status, and it receives timecode via LTC (XLR3), MIDI (DIN), or USB‑MIDI—or can generate LTC itself. It redistributes timecode through three transformer‑isolated XLR3 outputs with adjustable levels and includes an OLED screen with waveform and level monitoring. Powered via USB‑C with a locking retainer, it’s both portable and mountable, with optional rack and yoke accessories.

“Supporting the people who bring shows and experiences to life is what it’s all about,” said Colin Waters of TMB. “Our partnership with Backup Tech reflects TMB’s ongoing commitment to our awesome community and its well-being.”

Founded in the early 2000s under the name Lite Relief, Backup Tech was created By the industry - For the industry. Over time, the foundation has expanded its services to reflect the changing needs of the entertainment workforce. Today, Backup provides a range of support services, including Medical and Hardship Grants – Supporting individuals and families facing serious illness or injury, Counseling and Rehabilitation Aid – Offering financial assistance for therapy or addiction treatment and Mental Health Resources – Promoting wellbeing and resilience through awareness, training, and outreach

TMB and Backup Tech share a vision of an entertainment industry where everyone—regardless of race, gender, language, religion, or sexuality—is supported, respected, and valued.

“Backup Tech stands for fairness, kindness, and understanding,” said Jess Allan, the organization’s Charity Co-Ordinator. “With the support of the industry and our partners, we can continue to grow the resources available to those who keep our industry running.”
