Clock sync

Hi all! quick question, is it possible for the analog keys to send a clock sync to other analog devices? Trying to sync a drum machine with the Keys at the moment that can only sync via a clock sync.
I’m fairly new to Elektron Gear and controlling synths and other gear via gate, and voltage and all the other words that don’t make much sense to me yet.

Thanks in advance <3

The AK can send Sync-24 and Sync-48 messages from one or both of its MIDI Out and MIDI Thru ports. See page 52 of the manual.

It can also send Trig, Gate, and Clock signals from its CV outputs. See pages 58-59.

Which sync protocol does your drum machine use? Which drum machine?

awesome! just went home during lunch to look at changing cv outputs, and I think this is going to work. I’m using a teenage engineering PO-12 for kicks right now. still wrapping my head around the power of the analog keys, it’s a big step up from the volca keys (for me atleast).

Thank you for the help!
