In any case, a gig where that was happening would probably either run everything from the console's word-clock output, or rent a house clock and be done with it. In studios where many pieces of digital AV gear need to be in sync, there's usually what they call "house clock", a very stable (usually temperature-compensated) and somewhat expensive unit, to provide the reference standard.Īs far as live-mixing/sound-reinforcement gigs are concerned, I've never heard of digital mixers being widespread in that arena, but maybe I'm out of touch. Or do you ONLY bring your own rack-mounted master clock and maybe outboard MicPres not a slew of outboard hardware when doing a recording session or just mixing session? Have consoles gotten better but use a rack-mounted master clock? or since EVERYTHING is digital now you need a RU mounted clock to connect everything? any mastering engineers as well? Now that 88.2kHz is now the gold standard for hi-res recordings did you use it after making the jump to 88.2/96k? Did any of you own one and bring it with you in your gig bag? like a Black Lion Audio Micro Clock MK2 ? If in the studio did you plug it into just clock the console and converters years ago?ĭid it help at 44.1kHz? Did it differentiate yourself from other recording or mix engineers? Was this more popular on studio mixing gigs but I thought I had read on live sound concerts as well.
#External word clock generator
I had heard audio engineers used to carry their own external word clock generator with them to use on consoles.
