ClockBridge
Not claimedAUM can send MIDI clock, but it can't follow one
By Tanel Teemusk · Music and audioWhy we expect it: A clearly explained fix for a real AUM gap, with specific value and a satisfying status ring.
In short
ClockBridge is an iPad MIDI processor for AUM that lets AUM follow incoming MIDI clock from hardware such as a groovebox or sequencer. It sets the tempo, starts and stops AUM with the hardware, and shares tempo with Link-enabled apps. Its standout feature is a status ring that shows whether clock is waiting, locked, or lost, with the tempo holding if the cable is pulled.
Summary by Debuts, based on the App Store listing.About
AUM can send MIDI clock, but it can't follow one. ClockBridge closes that gap.
Load ClockBridge in AUM as a MIDI processor, route your hardware's MIDI into it and turn on Link. Your groovebox or sequencer now sets the tempo, and pressing play on it starts AUM straight away, on the hardware's downbeat. Stop stops it.
It's one button. The ring tells you what's happening: grey while it waits for clock, green once it has locked on, red if the clock goes away. Pull the cable mid-song and the tempo holds and the music keeps going.
• Follows tempo changes as you turn the knob • Starts AUM on the hardware's downbeat instead of at the next bar • Steady timing even when the host delivers clock in audio-buffer steps • Timing offset in milliseconds, to line up with your hardware's latency • Sync can be mapped to a hardware button in the host • Light enough to load in every project
ClockBridge uses Ableton Link, so the tempo is shared with every Link-enabled app on your iPad and your local network.
