Tips and Limitations
This section can be considered the FAQ part of this manual. It is
both a random compilation of tips & tricks and useful advice to
cure little ailments.
Nice to know
If you are playing at a xed tempo and want to be able to shift a
channel by a 16th note, simply calculate the duration of a 16th
note and set the maximum shift range to this value. The formula
is:
Shift Range =
15000
BPM
An huge number of multiclocks can be fed paralell by the same
Audio Clock source. Simply use a passive audio spitter to feed
the signal to as many clocks as you need.
You can set machine mode on the multiclock to POS and keep
the ability to perform negative shifts using Audio Sync if you
are able to congure a negative track delay on the Plugin or
Sync Track audio output on the DAW. Example: Set the track
delay to -100 ms on the DAW and the shift range of the channels
to +200 ms. The zero position in time on the multiclock is at
+100 ms then and you can move back and forth from there.
DIN Sync and shue at the maximum tempo of 300 BPM can
cause some old machines to stutter - they are old, please be a bit
tolerant about their quirks.
Of course the multiclock follows a tempochange of the master-
clock seamlessly under normal circumstances. Nevertheless, if
you try too jump from 30 to 300 BPM within an instant it might
react with a little hickup before getting back on track.
Please be very careful with machines/eurorack modules which
oer a frequency multiplicator internally. Due to the internal
structure of their algorithms, unpredictable osets will occure
when you shift clocks around!
