Re: clock sync (was Digital Recorders: a Marantz 661?)

Hi,

My mail was more of a plea to manufactures to consider adding something tha=
t allows recorders to sync if more than one of the same device are used, ra=
ther than specific timecode. E.g similar to the Zoom R16, expanding it with=
 a further 8 channels - but rather for stereo recorders with decent preamps=
. "plug this lead in and get a further 2 channels"
(even if proprietary)
