Time Code Control for 3rd (and 4th!?) deck

Hi everybody, now that Cross get four players, three stereo inputs and four stereo outputs, my third sl1200 is whining to get time code control (she's in mourning since the Producer's days...) ;)
I'm not asking for time code control for the four decks (as it would need another input), but at least for the third deck it would be wonderfull.
And if you say me that you're planning to add TC control for the four decks, i might plan to buy a fourth sl1200 :)
The sad point is i don't know how many people would be interested in this option.
Best regards

I think using 4 timecodes at once is good idea but it can lag program and system too much to be useful.
But it will be great if i can use timecode to all players not only 1&2 because a lot of controlers are mapped for 1&2 and for example me want to use my timecodes on 3&4 deck and MIDI controler to 1&2 and it is not possible for now. (I must remap controler from 1&2 to 3&4 channels).

I vote for at least getting flexible time code control. :)

This would let me use the Kontrol S4 with the turntables hooked up to do time code on decks 3/4.

Of course, I also have an A10 sound card that would LOVE to see 4 decks with time code control... but at least making it flexible would mean more usability with Cross hardware support.

I think this also ties in nicely with the flexible audio routing someone else was asking for in another section... :)

The 4 deck time code features was in distribution under the name Mixvibes Pro in 2005 and we were the first to do it.
I mean we know how to introduce 4 time code decks, it must be somewhere in the to do list of Cross, clearly not in the first update to come.

New major update won't bring it soon.
New features but not this one.

Thanks for your reply. I was using DVS Producer for some years, and so i'm well aware that you can do 4 decks time code (i was using 3 decks with DVS on an old Pentium 4 and a VERY low latency without problems). I wasn't whinning to get it ASAP, just want to know if it was planned someday, or if you'd never go that way. Can I post a link to this thread in the french forum, as some french users were wondering about this too ? viewtopic.php?f=381&t=27715&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a
thanks in advance

Of course yes... Maybe just better to resume
