Not to shoot you, and not that I expect you to know the answers, but

if the codec still has all the same compression as the SR 440 signal

that you record to tape then why would I spend the money on this? Why

not just record to tape? They need an SSD that does uncompressed.

From the sounds of it I would be better off with a Codex or S.Two.
