Who Beat the Tick?

Simple Q…

Which Elektron box is the most accurate to be used as MIDI clock master?

I think the race is between OT- A4 - MM ?

And if you answer…you do know why? motivate the answer please!

Thanks a lot in advance!

If someone’s done testing I’m keen to know.

You know this site?

^ nice! tomorrow i’ll try this out
thanks alot meanwhile

I remember Daniel at Elektron recommending the
OT as Master & not the MD or MNM as timing had improved substantially!
I’m using Cirklon at the mo & that’s incredible!

Interesting thread here for those interested in the nut & bolts

haven’t scrolled through that looong page…then i put Elektron in the search option and i found three friends…ehehehe!!
About MD i was already aware…but now i am convinced to keep using the OT as master!
Thanks a lot!

It’s a good site but I have to take their rating system with a pinch of salt, considering that the SH-101 and TR-909 get the lowest ‘lemon’ rating. I haven’t heard a lot of people complaining about the lousy timing of the 909. On the other hand I’m not giving up my Elektron gear :wink:

this larger timing changes could result in hearing drum trannsients clearer. i dunno. seems like octa is the best for mastering, as i suspected. my setup is octa main > a4 > mono > md > ms2000r > emx1

I did some testing on mine a while back. OT had really good clock compared to the MD. MD sequenced from OT was also tighter than MD alone. So let OT run the show as Jon said.

Indeed…my setup (since the Quombo) has always been

OT master > ThruBox > > >

A4
MM
MD

Thanks Guys!!

OT as master here as well. Works great and seems the most logical in my setup as it’s also the main sequencer.
