This Letter shows that a large class of fading memory state-space systems driven by discrete-time observations of dynamical systems defined on compact manifolds always yields continuously differentiable synchronizations. This general result provides a powerful tool for the representation, reconstruction, and forecasting of chaotic attractors. It also adds to the literature on differentiable generalized synchronizations, whose existence was so far guaranteed for a restricted family of systems and was detected using H\"older exponent-based criteria.
