5.5.3. Using Sync
Of all the skills you can master in electronic music, sync is one of the most important. Sync
is when two or more units (synths, drum machines, effects, oscillators, filters, voices) have
their rhythms synchronised to each other. Sync is also how we humans connect to the flow
of music. If you want to capture the attention of your listeners, you must understand how to
make captivating synced patterns.
The KeyStep Pro can sync to your DAW or external synth in various ways. Changing the
Time Division allows you to sync proportionally: at double speed, at half-speed, or even
slower than that.
The KeyStep Pro can also sync to your modular system. The CLOCK In jack on the back
panel accepts clock signals that will sync the KeyStep Pro to the clock of your Eurorack
system, be it a sequencer and LFO or a dedicated clock module. But there's more: a very
interesting option is to connect a burst module to CLOCK In. A burst module generates a
flurry of clock signals that can speed up and slow down. When connected to CLOCK In, it
will simultaneously speed up or slow down all (drum) sequences and arpeggios running on
your KeyStep Pro!
