It will
introduce a bit of 'vibrato' on your signal, in this case
with an amplitude of 1/59 of a semitone, which is probably harmless.
I think it should be. Remember that people successfully run
multiple analog multitrack machines in sync by controlling the
motor of one with some kind of timecode printed on the other.
We're dealing with physical motors so I suspect the "vibrato" in
that case is a lot more and nobody complained about it.
the Otari Mtr90III is quoted as +/-0.04% which i think corresponds
to just under 1 cent.
but that really is sync. This thread is about compensating for
lack of sync.
cheers!
