1. Introduction
Thank you for selecting the Grimm Audio CC2 Central
Clock for your production environment. This product
features an ultra low jitter clock oscillator with 2 word
clock outputs. It embodies our company philosophy of
providing the most transparent signal chain possible,
enabling you to achieve the best possible results
sonically and artistically. Large parts of the CC2 circuitry,
like the oscillator and its power supplies, use a discrete
design. Because of this, a CC2 has more than 200
components. After assembly, extensive tests and an
individual jitter measurement are carried out.
The CC2 can be used in a wide variety of applications
such as:
•
House Sync generation in audio studios. Two
outputs offer enough flexibility for most modern
setups. The extremely low jitter of the CC2 clock
outputs maximises the sound recording and
playback quality potential of the devices connected.
•
Clock stability improvement, and hence improved
sound, of digital live audio systems. By slaving your
main stage box to a CC2, the system sound quality
will likely improve.
•
Improvement of your home audio system with word
clock equipped devices.
This manual describes how to set up the CC2 in your
studio, live sound or home environment as well as
important tips on how to get the best performance from
the CC2. In addition, some background information on
the unit’s operation is provided.
We hope this investment will bring you many years of
creative enjoyment and help you achieve your goals.
