U-SYNC

U-SYNC is a precise, easy-to-use solution for syncing DAWs and hardware sequencers, eliminating the imprecision and complexity of current audio sync and MIDI Clock solutions.

Syncing and especially recording hardware MIDI gear in time in a DAW has always been a challenge. DAWs and computers often struggle to send MIDI Clock with high precision while handling audio through a computer audio interface, due to complex operating system environments and numerous user-dependent configurations.

U-SYNC is a software/hardware hybrid that clocks any MIDI device with unprecedented high precision in any DAW. This precise combination requires zero user configuration and offers full portability. U-SYNC enables musicians to compose in the studio, perform live, or jam with fellow musicians in perfect sync, regardless of their setup.

Many attempts have been made to simplify DAW-MIDI hardware syncing protocols. While some methods, like audio-sync, offer higher precision, they are particularly cumbersome for the end-user. Each existing solution has its own advantages and disadvantages. U-SYNC strikes the perfect balance, incorporating the best of all worlds. It offers a simplified yet highly precise method by syncing directly over a USB cable.

All electronic musicians using outboard MIDI Gear but also a DAW for recording, who can now make and record their music freely without the headaches of constantly adjusting and moving their recordings with the DAW timing grid.

The hardware device (Midronome) speaking with U-SYNC sends MIDI Clock, MIDI transport, as well as 5V analog clocks and start/reset signals for modular synths and vintage synths.

After extensive testing and beta-testing, U-SYNC was released for Mac OS users, with future plans to develop for Windows. Users have given a hugely positive review of U-SYNC, with market research showing that people would happily pay to solve their recording sync issues.

After that, the two companies aim to collaborate with more manufacturers in the audio industry to integrate U-SYNC into as many audio devices as possible.

Development of U-SYNC for Windows is a paramount priority. Developing for Windows has proved more challenging than Mac OS, and therefore requires a longer testing and development phase before it can be released as a Beta. U-SYNC aims to become the new standard way of synchronising any MIDI gear and recording software in the future.
