Silent Way Sync
Introduction
Silent Way Sync generates regular clock pulses or triggers, and in particular can generate a
signal, suitable for synchronising certain old drum machines and synths to the
DAW.
The plug-in has two outputs (both of which are optional): a clock output and a run/stop/
reset output.
In Use
When the ‘Type’ is set to something other than ‘Off’, clocks are generated when the host
DAW’s transport is running. Clock generation always begins at the start of a bar; if the
host transport is started in the middle of a bar, the plug-in waits for the next bar before
starting the clocks.
Type
•
“Off” disables clock generation.
•
“24ppqn” generates a 24 pulses-per-quarter-note signal, the standard
used by many Roland products.
•
“48ppqn” generates a 48 pulses-per-quarter-note signal, the standard
used by some Korg products.
•
“Custom” uses the ‘PPQN’ control to allow the user to specify the number of pulses
per quarter note.
