Electro-Harmonix EHX Clockworks Rhythm Generator / Synthesizer Pedal

The Electro-Harmonix EHX Clockworks Rhythm Generator/Synthesizer Pedal is a faithful reissue of the classic pedal made by Electro-Harmonix in the 1970s. The EHX Clockworks is perfect as a master clock for sequencers and drum machines as well as for triggering electronic percussion, classic EHX drum synths such as the Crash Pad or any other electronic device that can be triggered by pulses.

The Electro-Harmonix EHX Clockworks does not create sound on its own but instead generates pulses to trigger other devices. The pulse trigger can set the tempo for a drum machine or sequencer such as an EHX 8 Step. Clockworks' pulses might directly play a device by triggering a sound or note in the external device. The great thing about the Clockworks is you have four separate clock channels so you can connect four devices which will all play rhythmically with each other.

The Clockworks may look complicated but what it does is actually pretty simple: it takes a master clock and divides down its frequency by a whole number between 1 and 8, outputting a pulse at the new frequency created by the divider. There are 4 clock dividers or channels, each driven from the same master clock, so creating polyrhythms is fun and easy! Each channel has its own clock divider control, output level control and output jack. The master clock can be generated internally by the Clockworks or may come from an outside source. Although the EHX Clockworks looks very much like a digital product, it is actually fully analog, not that there is anything wrong with digital products.

Your Electro-Harmonix EHX Clockworks comes equipped with an Electro-Harmonix 18VDC-500mA power supply. The Clockworks requires up to 300mA at 18VDC with a center Positive plug. The Clockworks does not take batteries.
