Some even notice elements of their mixes they didn’t even hear prior to synced clocking!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy clock?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShort answer: For supreme audio fidelity when using multiple digital audio devices.\u003cbr\u003eLong answer: When running multiple digital audio devices simultaneously without clock sync, clocking jitter can result in smearing of the stereo field, and is particularly noticeable in transients and higher-frequency material like cymbals and lengthy reverb tails.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt’s also worth noting that the effects of superior clocking are cumulative. Noise reduction and jitter may be hard to discern on a two-track recording of vocals and guitar. But if you record a 64-track production through poorly clocked hardware, all that noise and jitter begins to stack up!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePatented Macro-MMC\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll Revolution clocks employ Black Lion Audio’s patented Macro-MMC technology, developed from years of experience in creating dedicated word clocks, as well as our interface modification service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMacro-MMC is a unique clocking technology that ensures low noise and minimal jitter, accomplished through strict component selection and proprietary methods of signal propagation. We start with a high quality oscillator (timing signal) and apply proprietary methods of signal transfer throughout the unit to keep the quality and accuracy intact all the way up to the output of the device.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClock nearly anything\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRevolution Clock I\/O includes connections for BNC, S\/PDIF, ADAT, and AES\/ABU. And if you’ve got a device in your studio that accepts clock in, the Revolution Clock can drive it — up to seven devices, four over BNC. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSet and forget\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRevolution Clock is easy to set up. Simply connect your existing digital devices to the clock outputs (we recommend a 75 ohm purpose made BNC word clock cable) and set those devices to receive external clock. Use the encoder to choose your sampling rate. Done.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMEMS Oscillators for superior stability\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile many popular clocking solutions use quartz crystal oscillators, we’ve chosen MEMs (Microelectromechanical systems) oscillators for Revolution Clock. We choose MEMs after conducting a blind shootout with the traditional quartz crystal oscillators used in our XB clocks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe MEMS oscillators won in terms of subjective sound quality, but also won out objectively. Many clocks are oven stabilized for less sensitivity to temperature fluctuations; MEMs require no thermal solution for stability as their stability is less affected by temperature. Furthermore, MEMs oscillators enjoy greater shock resistance than quartz crystals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFantastic price to performance ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRevolution Clock delivers low-jitter synchronization on par with clocks that can be extraordinarily expensive.
