I'm trying to get to the bottom of this.. If anyone knows some answers, fling them in the comments below! I decided to spend a few days testing the accuracy of both the MRCC 880 and the Floating Points (ERM) Multiclock. I ran multiple tests, with different trigger patterns, in multiple sitations, at different CPU levels, and they both sucked! Neither of the units provided a super "stable" clock. BUT both devices provided me with a useable clock. Maybe there is a point where this midi jitter matters to someone but I can't imagine the reason where it would. All my tests resulted in LESS than 1ms of jitter. Apparently, according to the internet, humans can't really hear anything less than 10? I know I can especially if its 2 sounds trying to be in the same place. What are your thoughts on all this?
Also forgot to mention the Multiclock can do DIN sync/sync 24 for them vintage baddies.
