Great stuff, would buy again but some slight improvements needed

Using it to clock my synths and modular system.

Solid build, great mapping and an easy interface (not too many menus and the screen is very visible).

Once in a few sessions, I'm getting jitter when sending the clock via the dedicated VST. it fixes when I'm closing my project on the DAW and re-open it.

Not a major issue but definitely can be a flow killer.

Still a great piece of gear that saved me a lot of hustle I use to have with clocking hardware.

Digital Audio 1 - 0 USB

MIDI Clock Sync over USB is by design not reliable enough. It suffers from the inherent weakness of USB. This device allows me to lock all of my hardware to a common baseline of a digital audio signal. Digital audio doesn't 'blink' as it's constantly streaming. USB blinks. Those blinks as it fills the buffer before the next packet of data is issued are not good enough for clock sync. A few years into ownership and this device has proven to be a great investment.

Great Product

The multi clock does exactly was it says it does. If had had to complain about anything it would be price. I like others find it to be expensive for what it’s purpose.

The holy grail of sync

If you have lots of gear and you get frustrated by inconsistent sync and jitter, look no further.

I use the multiclock to sync my DAW with everything else, eurorack, grooveboxes, synths etc.

First of all the build quality is top notch, although you don't really use this device all the time, you just set it once and forget about it.

The menu is a bit unintuitive in terms of navigation, but again, setting up it's not something you will do every day.

Yes, it is expensive, obviously, but in time you realize that it is essential.

Once you find the exact latency of the bits of your rig and set up the offsets, the results are just amazing. I managed to get +/- 2 samples jitter which is incredible.

midi sync problems? solved

i bought it mainly to use it as a main sync for my synths with ableton, and i never had any issues with it, works perfect. For sure you can do a lot more things with it, but for this need, just perfect.

Best way to sync audio and midi

My life has been saved with this. You can now change the tempo on your daw and nothing goes out of time. Using audio and midi is always a struggle but not when you have this. Its just great.

One clock to rule them all

If you're having trouble syncing your daw to your hardware, this is the way to go. I sync it through the audio plugin provided, as I find the midi sync did not work for me. Very well build, although the menu navigating can be a bit frustrating to setup. After that no worries at all.

Way better than I expected

I use this is a mixed, hardware & software setup. My drum machines are now super tight (especially the MFB Tanzbar) and my synths dont lag like they used to. It isn't super cheap but it is certainly good value for money.

Very good product! Only trouble was with the power adapter which tends to just stop working! Apart from that a very solid build and never loses the timing with multiple instruments!

Must have for Synth to DAW integration.

Just bought one recently. Absolutely must have for anyone with a hardware synth set up that they're looking to integrate with their DAW for on-the-fly jams. Would be great to have some 8th note shuffle and perhaps some shuffle/swing templates from various other bits of known/loved modules but this thing has really blown my mind. Amazing nobody else had thought of this. Well done lads. For something not particularly sexy to look at, it does VERY sexy things.
