Hi guys, I have a 3 card, 2 MEC system under XP. I have Reaper installed in the same box using an RME 9652 to fly stuff back and forth for editing via ADAT using ASIO sync.

My question:
Will adding an external wordclock Genx6 to the setup make my mixs sound better?

thanks
Rob_A

I grabbed a GenX from Tommy Detemer a few years back, and clocked my MEC and other ADDA boxes to it (Focusrite etc) and it improved the imaging. Things got even better when I replaced the GenX with an Apogee Big Ben.

It's been reported by several people over the years that these units do help. As to how dramatic an improvement you can expect to hear I can't say as I don't have an external clock on my rig.
