For digital audio transfers to a digital mixer or other digital audio device a reliable clock source is mandatory.
Without proper data synchronization digital audio will exhibit pops, clicks and other unpleasant artifacts. In a
film or video post environment video sync is usually distributed to all the video, audio and clock devices in the
studio to ensure that every thing is synchronous with the video signal right down to the sample level. For
synchronizing with analog tape decks that exhibit fluctuations in transport speed, RADAR
24 can even
reference to the incoming SMPTE signal. In this configuration RADAR
24 will fluctuate right along with the
analog master ensuring perfect synchronization at all times!
