Multiclock will be available from May 2015. So yes, it’ll be great to evaluate these claims in performance. I can also tell you E-RM are obsessive about quality and sustainable production. And it could change the way machines in your studio arrive in time. 449€ is a hefty price, but … it could be the last sync/clock device you ever buy. A “MIDI Map & Merge Matrix” lets you route and merge MIDI notes and control messages over MIDI or USB to particular outputs.Į-RM is a neighbor of mine – in Berlin and this week at Messe – so I’m curious to give this a try. I can really imagine dialing in something more life-like and human with this. That can allow you to fine-tune sync or even create your own grooves. You can tweak timing on everything – each channel has two knobs for shifting and shuffling. This is all fine and well, but I think it’s the adjustment that makes this interesting. Or, of course, the multiclock – like the midiclock+ before it – can simply be your stable clock source for everything else. If you really must use a USB MIDI connection, fine – that works. You can use clock signals from analog modular gear. ![]() So you can use MIDI or DIN (from more reliable MIDI gear that isn’t a computer, that is). You still retain the versatility to use what you want. That’s my explanation, not E-RM’s, so I hope they approve. Remember when you could use a phone to tell what time it was? A lady’s voice would intone from the other end, “the time is now… 7:45 and 33 seconds pm.” Think of a MIDI stream as giving you those time indications a little irregularly – not quite on the right tick – and an audio stream giving times that are always exactly correct, many times per second (44,100 times per second for a regular CD audio setting, for instance). That allows you to use a computer as a clock source without some of the nastiness that can often ensue. Whereas MIDI and MIDI over USB from a computer are inherently susceptible to jitter, E-RM claims that the audio synchronization gives them sample-to-sample accuracy. The most important thing to know about the multiclock is that it takes this obsession with getting sync right directly to your computer’s audio card. Just announced, the multiclock is the follow-up to the midiclock+, the clever MIDI sync box introduced by Berlin’s boutique E-RM Erfindungsbüro back in 2012. But the E-RM multiclock claims to do it even with a computer as the clock source – without jittering. We’ve seen boxes that claim to sync everything you have to everything else you have. ![]()
