During tracking, the audio flip flops between channels within it's pair.....i.e., channel 1 audio on channel 2, channel 4 audio on channel 3, and vice versa.... it also happens on the tape rerurns page as well, ch. 25-48. This doesn't happen immediately but within a few minutes of working... once it happens, i open the settings for the RME soundcard and I notice the adat 1, 2 and 3 keeps switching between synced, locked, and unlocked.....any ideas or help is appreciated...

Maybe clock related problem?
Check up on the whole clock sync setup.

I had already suspected the brainboard ribbon cable and investigated/adjusted it.... I wasn't sure if it was a WC issue considering the WC stays locked with the interface even while the other adat ports fall out of sync. But I suppose that it's not always as black and white... I have been a sceptic of the BFC for some time seeing as how even when you tighten it up and it clicks (locks) into place, the connection still seems fairly loose... although I did just try and put some Teflon around the threads of the connector board side, and it has significantly improved the tightness of the connection.. I will report back if it was just this simple of a fix.
