Thanks!

That seems it'll be the easiest solution so far. Create a 1-sample impulse and stick it on an Ardour track. Wire the L output channel of the Zoom to the R input channel. Arm a track to record from the Zoom, then play the impulse. Then I just have to measure the distance between them in Ardour using the sample display mode.
