Synchronization of Data Recorded on Different Recorders

Electrical and mechanical timing errors corrected. Electronic timing system enables time correlation of analog and digital signals recorded on different magnetic tapes or on different tracks of same tape. Recorded simultaneously on different magnetic-tape tracks along with data signals to enable subsequent time correlation of data. Concept improves analysis of Space Shuttle flight-data tapes containing signals with frequency components up to 50 Hz, used for higher frequencies, in kilohertz region. Useful in other applications requiring synchronization of data on different data tracks.
