David has this right. Most later SMPTE sync units can run automatically from
just changes in the SMPTE location (no control signals needed). This is fine
if you are just transferring tracks, but a complete pain if you are trying
to run both units in a production environment.
If I was recording tracks on the MM1200 and wanted Paris to play along, I
would reverse the setup and use the 1200 as master.The only caveat with using the 1200 as master is that the fluctuations
in tape speed will translate to "pitch" changes in Paris, as it tries
to keep in sync with the tape transport. If you are just using Paris
to play back (as Gene said) this would be fine... if you are wanting
to *record* to Paris while slaved to the tape transport, I would not
recommend it.

The guitar player in my band had to put his cat down the other day.
I faced a simillar thing a couple of years ago at the vets advice, but didn't
do it. Now that cat has come back to health, and rules the house again. I
don't like vets so much anymore. A owner just knows when it's time.
Now hurry up and answer all th questions.
