Clock out on MIDI Thru?

Elektron Gear Machinedrum
#1

Is there any control over the MiDi Thru port? I’d like to use both MiDi Out and Thru for transmitting the clock from MD to other gear.
PS. I think newer elektrons have this…

They don’t !

You can optionally use the Thru and Out ports to use an earlier clock technology (pre-MIDI … DIN Sync) as the 5 pin 180deg sockets are the same (different pins used)

I must be missing something. The clock you are receiving from the MD arrives at the MIDI in and is duplicated at the MIDI thru. Therefore the (unknown) device you are using should be able to transmit its own clock (inherited from the MD) onto whatever you like at the same time.

EDIT: Ah, I see what you are saying. I thought you were saying you were receiving a clock from the MD on another Elektron device and wanted to forward it to two destinations. I see you are saying the MD is at the start of the chain. So, the answer is no, unless as pointed out above you can make use of DIN sync.
