As you can see from the results, not all machines are created equal. The ran a Litmus test on dozens of popular drum machines, samplers and synths. There's loads of info on there about DAW/Hardware related sync issues if you're interested in that kind of thing However they've left their site up and running as a utility to others. But they are recently gone out of business. Everything out of the box doesĮdit: for years, Innerclock Systems were top their game for this kind of thing. I got it running instantly using the exact same hardware and. The audio out will run the clock but there is lots of jitter and the Multiclock reads the tempo as 'ERR'. The Multiclock is unable to generate sync from audio out which is strange. In the box has very little latency and does not rely on MIDI clock. Is anyone using an ERM Multiclock with Reaper For whatever reason I cannot get it to sync with Reaper. Because the sound is entirely generated within the computer it effectively has (close to) zero latency. As such it is not subject to or reliant on MIDI clock sync in any way. As it is it’s unusable in a live situation The USB audio is a big selling point of the boutique range. In a way it’s even more frustrating because it’s just about in sync but not quite.Īll of this and we haven’t even considered MIDI clock Jitter If you are using the main audio outs you can eliminate the USB related latency but not the other two. That’s just the way it was builtĪnother smaller yet significant latency is that of the DAW generated MIDI clock syncĪnd yet another latency involved is how long it takes the TR-08 to respond to incoming MIDI clock and start playback The larger part of the overall latency heard here is inherent in the USB interface of the TR-08. You would have the same issue although the latency will be certainly be less using the main audio out. I don't really have the patience to make produced looking videos I'm very happy with it.ĭisclaimer: Audio and video are a bit shit. Meaning all my gear can be custom synced to my DAW depending on its own particular inherent latencies. It has four sync outputs streams and they can all have differently timed offsets. I'm blown away by how simple and effective this thing is. However you can see me adjusting the sync delay offset on the Multiclock negatively in order to bring the two beats into sync.Īmazing. The out of phase beats is the typical non adjusted for latency sound you get when running the TR-08 USB audio against audio direct from any other VSTi/sampler in your DAW. The first beats you hear is the standard 606 kit drum rack from Live. A quick explanation of what is going on:Ībleton is Master, TR-08 is slave. Adjusting track delay sounds give satisfactory or consistent results When synced to DAW via MIDI clock sync, it's just unusable. I love the TR-08 but the latency of the audio over USB totally ruins that whole side of the machine. I picked up a Multiclock recently and a TR-08 not long before that Seems strange for a place that's as obsessed with synths and drum machines as it is An added USB connection means that users can send MIDI messages from a DAW while simultaneously synchronizing with an audio clock.Don't ever see a lot about the E-RM Multiclock on here The Multiclock can be synchronized with incoming MIDI clock, DIN Sync, or analog clock signals from a modular synthesizer system. Incoming audio signals are first converted into clock signals then routed to the Multiclock’s four outputs. Timing information is sent to the unit from an audio track of the DAW, a process aided by an included plugin. There’s also per-channel Hot-Plug&Play support for MIDI, modular clock, analog LFO, and DIN.Īdditionally, any unused channel can be utilized as a MIDI controller. The Multiclock consists of four independent channels, each with real time shift and swing parameters. The unit converts many kinds of clock signals into others, drives a Sync plugin via DAW, and is capable of acting as a master clock source. The E-RM Multiclock is a multifarious sync solution and interface designed as a one-stop-shop for the synchronization of compatible audio devices.
