Flame Clockwork Module

via this auction
"The Flame Clockwork now as 3u Rack Module is a versatile clock and tempo generator. In first line it´s designed to generate clock/trigger/gate signals for clocking units with tap and clock inputs, to fire envelopes or to control sequencers and sample&holds. The clock can also be shuffled and shifted before/after the master clock!
Additionally it can send MIDI clock and a fixed MIDI note per channel. Some controls transmit MIDI control data and there´s also a simple MIDI/CV interface.

Maindiffrence to Desktop Version:
Midi: 10 instead of 2 Control changes for channel transmiting
Midi to CV: 24-84 instead of 24-83 range of note numbers
Midi Controller: - no Potenziometer for Random / shuffle / Tempo
Outputs: 2 mono jacks Sum & Gate and 16th Outputs

Technical details:
Internal tempo generator, but the Clockwork can also be synched to external MIDI-Clock. Three independent clock-channels with adjustable divisor factor, including triplets and punctuated notes. -GATE sets the gate length and allows a conitnuous gate signal (hold) or to turn off the channel. The SHIFT/CV control has two functions:
-SHIFT can shift the clock BEFORE of AFTER the master clock, maximum shift is half of the chosen divisor!
- CV affects the signal at CV output and controls clock level between zero and MAX (0...2V). In maximum position the CV out turns into a LFO. A MIDI-synched LFO in a triolic or punctuated grid? No problem for the Clockwork!!

Complex RANDOM function, SHUFFLE (8th or 16th grid) and TEMPO affect all three channels simultaneously. Recording and looping the movements of each track´s controls (besides BEAT) possible over the length of two bars.

Clock: 0/5V. CV adjustable between 0-5V. SUM outputs mix the CV- and Clock-signals (two different logic functions!). A set of LEDs visualises the different clocks. The simple yet fully independent MIDI/CV-interface follows 1V/oct characteristic. It is limited to MIDI channel 1 and five octaves range. Each channel sends a MIDI note on channel 10 in the rhythm ot the chosen divisor factor.

Inputs and outputs:
MIDI In, Out.
Clock and CV outputs per channel and two clock/CV sum outputs as 3.5mm mono sockets. two 3.5mm mono sockets

Measures and weight:
3U Eurorack module, 28HP wide, depth 42mm (165x100x42mm)
current draw: 130-140mA"
