I should have an R4 this week and will be starting my mod research on it right away. Hopefully I will be offering mods to these within a month.

If you have a V3 without the opti-mod, could you link 3-4 V3's together? Or does the V3 only have word-clock out period?

Well, the optical mod replaces the word clock output with the optical output.  But even if you forego the optical mod and keep the word clock, it's only an output - no way to take the word clock into the other V3s.

ah I see

Question about doing a matrix with the R4:

1. So the mic/line switches for the R4 work in pairs right? I could set mic/line in for 1&2 and 3&4 in pairs, but not seperately.

2. For matrix, I could go mic in on 1&2, then line in on 3&4. On the line in from the SBD, would that just be connected via unbalanced 1/4" mono plugs for each channel? Can the R4 take unbalanced mono line in on the 1/4". Or would I have to do something else to bring the line in from the board? I'm assuming those are XLR/TRS combo jacks on the R4 right?

Thanks!

Any word on this yet Chris?  I'm anxious to hear what you have found so far.

I do think taping is the reality of the business..it is also an impetus for artists to create studio CDs that are ART, not just another recording...    Fareed Haque  2-4-2005
