Len,
   Yes. I do the same thing by hand with Sound Forge, but that's not
automatic. For instance, I start recording on one machine before I start
playing on the first machine, so I get an unknown amount of opening
silence on the second recording. I'll be sending from one machine to the
other over ADAT, so I expect that the digital data will be identical,
but not time aligned.

   I was looking for a solution that was possibly more like 'diff',
where it finds where the differences begin in two text files even if the
line numbers are different. When I read through the rsync description I
didn't see that it would do that, but possibly it does.

Thanks,
Mark
