at the risk of revealing what I dont know, I must ask. What is the purpose of smpte or word clocking? My midi 8x8 interface has smpte, my audio card had word & smpte, my fx processors have one, the other, or neither.
What, where, and why?
Should I be attempting to sync as much as I can when I can, or is this not necessary? I dont do any external recording with the exception of my own voice, and that is only once in awhile. I mainly create instrumental works. My 4 synths I play (mostly) via midi from my host DAW.
The reason I ask is that in this months EM magazine, this fellow says his Big Ben is the most important piece of equipment as it helps create the highest quality audio possible because everything is lined up nicely. I not sure about application in my case. Opinions?
