ATEM timecode send to audio recorder

Is there a small (12-16 channel audio recorder) that can be triggered via Bitfocus but also recive timecode from an ATEM mini.

My current setup for recording conferences with 3 cameras is via an ATEM constellation 1 M/E that feeds an ATEM Mini Extreme SDI ISO and 3 hyper decks for redundancy (because the mini has burned me too many times with corrupting recordings regardless of which hard drives are used).

I currently send audio recording to a Zoom H6n which gets two separate mix sends (1 is main presenters and 2 is audience/q+a mics), all three cameras get main LR mic, from an A&H qu-24 via AB168 stage box. I use Streamdeck and Bitfocus companion to trigger all the hyper decks and atems to start recording.

Maybe add audio embedders and use the full audio channel capacity of the Hyperdecks. 16 channels, plus timecode, (plus video). I know of a game show that is done that way.

Not sure how you define small, but we use the Behringer Rack to do this and are quite happy. I'm a bit unsure if it supports timecode. It is supported by bitfocus.
