Setup was easy! After plugging in the Multiclock to the wall, and via USB to my computer, I simply went into Ableton Live and enabled all four ports (which appear independently within the MIDI Setup Page). Danish startup Midronome has launched a Kickstarter to fund production of the Midronome, a MIDI Master Clock, that they say makes it effortless to set and sync tempo across MIDI gear like synths, sequencers, drum machines, Ableton Live and effects pedals. The Multiclock can be synchronized with incoming MIDI clock, DIN Sync, or analog clock signals from a modular synthesizer system. Also, the buttons and the navigator knob (rotary) are firmly locked in. I was very pleased to experience some silky, smooth knobs that you can tell cost a little extra. Synchronisation of the multiclock to a DAW relies on a sample accurate audio clock stream, which in consequence. But We will include a North American style plug adapter free of charge The E-RM Multiclock is a multifarious sync solution and interface designed as a one-stop-shop for the synchronization of compatible audio devices. No drifting involved, everything on the grid. I’m excited! I was also very excited initially about the Shift knobs, as I’ve had some light drift with some devices from time to time. This unit comes with a 100V-240V adapter with an EU style power plug. Otherwise it can receive a center-positive 9V. So, one box takes care of DIN and MIDI in one shot. Note: The Multiclock needs a 2-prong Europlug to US plug converter in order to work with US power outlets. Initially, I’d gotten excited about the Multiclock, as I have a DIN based device (MC-202), as well as several volca devices, which accept MIDI Input. It also features four Shift knobs, for light, or serious sync adjustments, outside of your DAW. Synchronization of the multiclock to a DAW relies on a sample accurate audio clock stream, which in consequence guarantees absolutely tight clock signals with. E-RM offers a specialized plugin for interfacing with the Multiclock. In addition, it becomes a MIDI Interface when connected to a computer via USB. The most interesting feature of the Multiclock, though, is its method of syncing to a DAW. It allows you to route and merge other MIDI data from four USB MIDI ports and the onboard MIDI In with the accurate clock signals. There’s also a MIDI IN, coupled with a quarter inch input, for accepting analog clock source, or MIDI IN, DIN/Sync. The E-RM Multiclock works as either a standalone clock source capable of sending MIDI, or DIN/Sync 24, and even analog clock signal over four built-in 5-pin outputs.
