Looks like I got in just under the wire, since I haven't upgraded to 2021.3.1 yet. Don't know how I missed it in the release notes, or maybe I just didn't understand what it was.

When running a Sync HD or Sync X, does the satellite station take it's clock source from the Administrator through the next work connection? Or is it best to connect both systems through word clock somehow? If I'm recording through Red 8Pre and HD Native, and the DVS system is taking it's clock from the same Red 8Pre does it still pull form the same clock source so it's a moot point?

Avid needs to play this feature up. I couldn't find hardly any info out there about it other than what's in the manual, which isn't super clear.
