A SHORT HISTORY OF THE CLOCKWORK ...
In the year 2006 I worked at a "MIDI-to-soundbox"-steering for a piece of thea-
tre, "history tilt" by Daniel Dorsch, sound-artist and friend of mine, who at that
time was using almost analougue equipment, like effect pedals of the "mooger-
fooger"series, (TM). He came to me with the idea to build a simple analogue
Multitrack-clock-generator, which should mutually move the different clock
tracks. Whith this tool, one should be able to start envelopes earlier, to produ-
ce shuffels and to play uncommon rythms.
After one year of first drafts we started the development under very helpfull
influence and innovative ideas of some musician friends (many thanks especi-
ally to Robert Junge as well as to Paul Schultz from Schneider's Büro!). So the
original Clockwork-concept enlarged with additional CV-outputs, Sum-outputs,
Random functions, LFO's and MIDI-functions (MIDI-to-CV-interface, MIDI-con-
trollers). The result of the Clockwork offers many possibilities with high fun-
qualities.
Due to the fact that we`ve had a great demand for a modular system version,
now here comes the module in euro rack format. The layout is adapted and
some functions are amplified and advanced.
Much fun!
