Sync-Shift Mark II MIDI Clock Din Sync Converter Delay/Lag Offset Correction

Well that's about as convoluted as it gets. I believe this is my first title link wrap! Remember the Innerclock Sync Shift? Title link takes you to shots of one pulled via this auction. This one via polyconnect.

"Features:
'Gridlock' Midi Clock to Din Sync Conversion with ultra-low, constant conversion lag time so your initial conversion offset remains fixed and tight.

'Brick Wall' Midi Input Filter - because the Midi Specification gives no priority to Midi Clock messages we felt that in order to get the best possible I/O sync integrity we had to make sure that all midi message other than strict Midi Clock were well and truly ignored.

Innerclock Sync-Shift Mark 1 real-time Din Sync offset/lag correction lets you compensate for common hardware and software Midi Clock and Din Sync start lag time issues plus it has two full bars of Shift available so you can easily syncopate sync slave devices or software against the master.

Rotary push-pull Shift 'Fine Tune' lets you rush or drag the slave against the groove in real-time with no loss of sync. Go from hard 16th swing to phase locked grid quantize and back again all in one bar and in real-time!

'Gridlock' Din Sync to Midi Clock Conversion - same ultra-low, constant conversion lag time but reverse engineered to provide Din Sync to Midi Clock.

Modular/Discreet design - no CPU personality disorders. We could have done all three jobs on one chip with a shared instruction set but we didn't. From experience - especially where synchronisation is concerned - sharing hardware resources is a bad idea. Each of the three core components that makes up the Mark II Sync Shift has its own dedicated IC and code. This means they work great in isolation and there is no loss in performance when you connect them together.

The Mark II Sync Shift is really three separate, ultra high quality devices in one compact package where the whole truly is greater than the sum of the parts.

Hands-On. Five pots - four switched and one free turning - work collectively to provide up to two full bars of Sync offset. The top three switched pots set Quarter divisions, Sixteenth divisions and Individual Clocks respectively. The bottom left rotary switch is for Bypass, Real-Time Shift and Shift Lock. The last free turning pot provides the real-time push/pull sync fine tuning between master and slave.

All three internal components have individual rear facing Midi/Din sockets for discreet I/O.

Use the Midi Clock to Din Sync conversion on its own or simply route the converted Din Sync signal back into the Mark II for real time lag correction and syncopation of your Din Sync Slave device. Now take the Shifted Din Sync signal back in to the Din to Midi Clock converter to apply the exact same real-time lag/offset correction and syncopation method to any of your Midi Clock slave devices.

The Sync Shift Mark II provides a simple, accurate, hands-on way to make all your gear lock the way it should - Hardware or Software, Master or Slave, Midi Clock or Din Sync/+5v.
