![]() In the end it's fairly plug-and-play too, though I did succeed in making it harder than it needed to be for a bit :) I've been now running Ableton as master, with the Synch-Gen II plug-in generating audio pulses these are sent out through my audio interface to the Sync Gen hardware unit (built like a tank and beautiful as well), which converts to MIDI clock and forwards on via 5 direct MIDI out ports to wherever I choose to send it. My experience with the product (the Synch Gen II) has also been successful. From handling my pre-purchase hand-wringing and requests for advice, to assuring me I would not be stuck with the product in the event of a bad fit, to ensuring my post purchase questions were all answered in a fast, friendly, and (most of all) patient manner, my experience doing business with David has been nothing but pleasure. David Lackey, who is Innerclocks, has been a diamond. Only reporting in now because I wanted some mileage with the system before speaking up.įirst I must say that Mr. Their website was idiosyncratic to be sure, opaque even that and the priciness of their products made it hard to want to jump in.īut late last year I jumped in anyway, such was my desperation for a solution. I am using combinations of Ableton, EDP, LP1, Repeater, and various outboard timed effects (delays, trems etc).ĭiscussion was cautious as I recall, and nobody here had had direct experience with them. I had been looking for a solution to get Ableton and all of my hardware loopers and effects into rock solid MIDI clock synch, and had been pulling out my hair because every solution I tried always ended in gotchas and dead ends. Do you need another delay? If you´ve decided that you do, you´d be nuts to pass this one by.Last year I started a thread asking if anyone was familiar with Innerclock Systems in Australia. Timeless fulfils the needs of desktop engineers who need a bit more control than they´re currently getting from their freeware or bundled echo boxes, while also delivering that pristine FabFilter sound quality. At $129, this isn´t the cheapest delay on the block, but you should remember that it still costs less than most modest hardware models. If it does, though, there are always those presets to turn to. It might be more complex than some other delay plug-ins, but it´s unlikely to addle your mind if you´re a novice user. What´s more, it´s perfectly capable of more conventional time-based effects such as chorusing, phasing and more. Timeless is a grand slam of a delay, and one that enables you to transform a signal into something entirely new and potentially unrecognisable. However, there´s also a stretch mode, which keeps the pitch constant when the delay time is changed. There is, needless to say, a setting for the familiar tape variety of delay - when this is selected, echoes change in pitch as the delay time is adjusted. One particularly nice option is that you can select from two different delay styles. The LFOs, for example, come with settings for ‘Slow Sine´, ‘Sample and Hold´, etc. In addition to the preset patches that come included - over 100 of them - there are also presets for some of the individual sections. ![]() This features a whopping 24 modulation slots divided into three banks of eight, which ought to be more than enough to handle even the most convoluted configurations! As with all FabFilter plug-ins, Timeless offers all sorts of unique touches that enhance its appeal considerably. Happily, all of the modulation sources can be routed to their destinations via FabFilter´s unique drag-and-drop mod matrix.
