I use a MOTU Digital Timepiece. Very versatile for all types of sync.

Tape is LTC master sends LTC to DTP. DTP sends MTC to PTLE. PTLE chases incoming MTC. With 002 DTP can send clock via SPDIF.
Half he price of the JL Cooper piece and gives you more options, specifically word clock ( both word and spdif) and video reference for post with everything sample accurate locked
If you get one, after making al the connections, run it on SMPTE (LTC) mode and make sure PTLE transport is online and its MTC and synchronization is setup correctly.
