No, it is a word clock in, as labeled. It is used when Transporter is
acting as a data source (clock slave) feeding data to an external DAC
which has word clock out.

Transporter _also_ supports word clock out - in this mode the s/pdif
output connectors are repurposed as word clock outputs. That allows
Transpoter to act as a DAC for an external data source (eg a CD
transport having word clock in). This is not applicable in your case.

Can you rephrase that?

Trying to incorporate a word clock into a effects loop context is a
weird case because the Transporter is both the data source and the DAC,
and yet these functions are decoupled across either side of the effects
loop. 

But I did foresee the value of being able to have the DAC as clock
master while in loop mode, and that is exactly what the synchronous
clock mode is for.  Even if we had supported a word clock in this mode
via a dedicated output port, it would still necessarily have the
restriction that the loop processor not modify the clock rate. So there
was no point - it already does exactly what you want without needing the
external connection.

There are not a lot of definitive reports as to what digital processors
work properly in "synchronous loop" mode. I know that behringer DEQs do,
but Tact DRCs do not (due to ASRC). It would be a good subject for a
wiki page.
