clocking madness

So today I got the DIGI SYNC I/O happening at Studio G.
   I did some wiring yoga behind the racks with Francisco, and we moved the Antelope 10M and Trinity to make room for the DIGI sync.
   The SYNC is now distributing clock that starts at a rubidium core, atomic clock source, which is divide down from 10MHZ to our sample rate, and also provides a speed/cal reference for the house SMPTE generation in the SYNC. wow. yeah. anyway... so its all up and running and creating LTC for the UPTOWN  moving faders in my Neve console.
  It is really cool to finally have a solid "house sync" to keep everything syncronized and on the same clock source digitally, but also to have solid LTC/SMPTE/VTC at every device that wants it. there is even MTC available from the same device, all deriving it main speed/cal info from the atomic clock, in theory.
More tile in the chamber tomorrow, with some more plexiglass sealing up some places where we are losing reflections.  Also starting to catalog ALL the gear at studio G for a massive website overhaul that is way overdue.
