The build quality of the unit itself is excellent. Of course if I hit play on it, its fine and everything sounds great. The Multiclock is a cleverly designed product, with a feature set that builds on the foundation laid by the Midiclock but takes it to an entirely new level of versatility thanks to the inclusion of DIN sync, analogue clock and seamless DAW integration. I had it running fine in OB so its got to be user error by me. Triple checked the Sync settings in its menu, swapped out cables…it’s not taking sync. Struggling a little with the Digitone though. Ive tested them all out (sequenced from ableton out via E-RM USB and they are fine.) So I found that around 2.5ms has the synths dialed in pretty well. If I set the latency too high in the plugin, it pulls the kicks ahead of the grid. Which honestly, is amazing on it’s own.Īdded in a synth that I sequence with ableton and so I use an external instrument.
As a guitar player, I really dig the tuner and being able to tap a tempo into the watch and always having it with me is fantastic. I dialed in the offset into the E-RM for each drum machine and they are super locked in now. Ive got the tempos set in the app and it counts in all the songs for the band, we also link up on other projects so everyone with a Soundbrenner gets the beat.
I am sending my drum machines into ableton with monitoring off and I am using my RME mixer software to monitor everything. Other setup/delay compensation may be need for routing audio into or roundtrip with Ableton. I trigger audio and MIDI clips then output the audio to an external mixer channel. I’m also just getting back to a hybrid setup but I don’t run audio into Ableton.
It doesn’t drift or jitter but I can never get the compensation right, even with proper Driver Error Compensation settings in Ableton => Preferences => Audio. multiclock is available for purchase for 449 EUR (classic) / 519 EUR (USB version). I can never get things to sync up perfectly otherwise. multiclock is also available with an additional classcompliant USB MIDI module add-on to enable other MIDI commands to be sent from a DAW to external slave devices while still syncing to the sample-accurate audio clock stream.
It takes your DAWs audio clock an derives an ultra precise and almost jitter-free. Using an external device means that you can solo tracks in Ableton and it won’t impact the audio sync.Īs for setting up the sync, I personally disable Delay Compensation in Ableton. The Multiclock USB is a multi-format solution for audio synchronisation. Use an external device and send the audio to an output of your audio interface then into the ERM.
I mean like, if you look at your tempo on the gear that displays it, it doesn’t even jump by 0.1. Basically, in Logic, Ableton, and pretty much all of the DAWs, the MIDI c. There’s 0 jitter when I use the audio sync in. Steve: Ableton is god and all the tempos are coming from that. If they dont jitter because they get a clean clock from the ERM, that would be something else.
