Kevin,
When you use Pro Tools systems, do you use an external clock? If so, what and why.
P.S. Thanks for taking the time to help all of us my brother.

Most professional studios tend to have an external clock source such as a "Big Ben" by Apogee or similar. I do think that it makes a difference to the quality of detail that you can hear in the project as a stable clock reduces the jitter. PT's 192 is also very stable and a worthy candidate.
