Ya, I had read that. It actually says very little. I feel cheated when
the manual does not at least have a URL to the standard used... Maybe I

No you dont ask too much, i see it the same way and i think most manuals
hide pretty important information. After reading the hole manual where a
lot of obious things about windows drivers are discribed i also felt a
little bit disappointed. Maybe someone should ask the support about.
They only write down what they think the users need, asking something
which isnt written anywhere may influence the future manuals? I dont know ;)

The first question they would ask is for my registration no. I don't have one as I don't have the box. What manufactures don't seem to get is that I read through the manual in deciding _if_ I would buy their box. If the information I get from them before purchasing doesn't tell me what I need, I don't buy. This box does look like an interesting solution for one of my uses (live recording) but the use of non-standard/undocumented sync options would limit it's usablility to one use only, making it over priced for me. If it had wordclock or even aes3/spdif in, it would be much more interesting. If this is the same standard used in DJ equipment (I also can't find info for that) it may use one of those things inside the cable which means I would be able to hand make a usable cable (maybe). That would allow it to be used for studio recording as well. Anyway, I don't think I will buy one.
