Science of Sync. Art of Groove.
CLOCKstep:MULTI is dedicated to one thing: perfect synchronization between machines and musicians.
Whether it’s sending clock with impeccable precision or following the "imperfect" timing variations of a live drummer, it adapts to your needs and will keep a stage full of gear in musical alignment.
Use it for ...
-
Reliable Master Clock
Rock-solid MIDI/DIN/Analog Sync and Transport control for sequencers, tracks, loopers, and vintage gear.
-
Following a Human Beat
Put the drummer in the driver's seat. It analyzes their beat in real-time and sends continuous MIDI and Analog Sync that breathes with their tempo.
-
DAW Sync
Simple and effective synchronization of your computer DAW and external hardware. Sample Accurate Clock eliminates drift and excessive amounts of jitter and latency between them.
-
Metronome Click
Send Audio Metronome Click to bring it all together with live musicians. Set the metronome's BPM, Interval Volumes, Swing and Time Signature options to match any desired groove.
-
Automating MIDI
At a critical moment, when your attention may be divided, automatically send quantized or repeating MIDI Commands, perfectly timed on a Bar Line.
-
Bridging Connections
Pass any MIDI Message between USB and MIDI DIN in both directions. Creates a class-compliant 1x1 MIDI Interface on a computer or other USB Host.

Kristian Dunn - El Ten Eleven
"We've been searching for years for something that's reliable to keep my looper pedals synced. CLOCKstep:MULTI is really easy to use and is reliable like a swiss watch. Everything else we tried fell short."
-
Luca Abatemarco - Electronic Creatives
"Using Audio In Sync...I love that feature. And the form factor of the pedal scratches my brain in just the right way."
-
Brian Fasani - 51 Peg
"It keeps all the gear in perfect sync and is easy to control from behind the kit. I like the number of options for setting the click audio. I can always set the right feel."
Features
-
MIDI Clock Sync
Sends clock with precise timing, including using decimal point BPM values.
Follow external clock on either the MIDI IN or Audio IN when the situation requires.
Automatically switch between the role of Clock Master to Clock Follower with ease.
-
Analog Sync
The 3.5mm patch bay can send up to five +5v Analog Sync signals, each with their own configurable sync rate.
44 Sync Rates are available to choose from. Keep outputs in tight coordination, or let them spin off on their own for a bit of chaos.
-
Follow Beat (Human Groove Tracking)
Tracks live drums in real-time and continuously updates the tempo so that sequencers, synths, loopers, and delays groove with the player.
Compatible with both MIDI and Audio input. Learn More. -
Sample Accurate Clocking
For the tightest sync with a DAW, send Sample Accurate Clock from the computer into the audio input to resolve excessive jitter or latency.
-
Transport Control
Basic Start/Stop/Pause operation is the default, but there are advanced choices you can make like Quantize and Resync.
Or, let Clock and Transport operate completely independent from each other. You are in control. -
Metronome Click
A dynamic click sound using your own preference of Quarter, 8th and 16th note intervals.
Each Interval has independent volume and swing control for getting just the right feel.

Time Signatures

The beginning of each bar is tracked by both the Click Audio and any Quantized features.

This device has all my gear in sync and no jitters.
That item is beautifully made ! i received it also fast. It was very well packaged. I would add a little plastic bag to the clock itself to protect it in case it dislodge itself (which didnt happen ! so mine is fine!). Awesome product ! Thank you for becoming part of my studio and my music ! :)

JMK answered my questions promtly and shipped the unit out within a week to Canada. Works exactly as expected, seems to do just about everything. Will be using it to send clock to all devices and to send click to drummer to get them in synch with the keys and synths.
Works like a charm. This little box makes syncing my DAW, eurorack and synthesizers a hell of a lot easier. It also is inspiring me to sync things up that I otherwise would not have.
A small cheat sheet card for the key commands would be great to have included in the box. I made a few labels to put on the sides and back.
Excellent device. Got my half dozen gadgets or so all synced up. Eurorack, MIDI, DAW synced. Problem solver.
