Black Lion Audio / REVOLUTION CLOCK XC Master Clock Generator

＜＜Sep 2025 New Product！＞＞ Black Lion Audio's classic MicroClock series, which has been adopted not only in studios but also in many live sound venues, has been renewed as the Revolution Clock Series. REVOLUTION CLOCK XC is Black Lion Audio's best word clock to date, featuring patented Macro MMC and suspended oscillation to deliver ultra-stable, low-jitter clocking across 14 outputs.

BlackLionAudio's Word Clock Generator Has Been Improved

The BlackLionAudio Revolution Clock Series features a jitter of just 0.5pS RMS at the BNC output, the lowest jitter of any clock BlackLionAudio has ever produced. Your productions sound their best when all devices are perfectly synchronized. With a properly set-up system and clocks properly configured, many users experience a greater sense of space and depth thanks to more accurately reproduced reverb and stereo image. Some even notice elements of their mix that were inaudible before clocking synchronization!

Patented BLA Original Technology Macro-MMC

All Revolution clocks feature Black Lion Audio's patented Macro-MMC technology, developed from years of experience creating dedicated word clocks and our interface modification service. Macro-MMC is a unique clocking technology that guarantees low noise and minimal jitter through rigorous component selection and a unique signal propagation method. Starting with a high-quality oscillator (timing signal), we apply a unique signal transmission method throughout the entire unit, maintaining quality and precision all the way to the device's output.

MEMS Oscillator for Superior Stability

While many common clock solutions use quartz oscillators, we chose a MEM (Microelectromechanical Systems) oscillator for the Revolution Clock. We chose the MEM after conducting a blind test with the traditional quartz oscillator used in the XB Clock. The MEMS oscillator not only won in terms of subjective sound quality, but also objectively. While many clocks use oven-stabilized methods that are less susceptible to temperature fluctuations, MEMS oscillators are less susceptible to temperature fluctuations and therefore do not require a thermal solution for stabilization. Additionally, MEMS oscillators are more shock-resistant than quartz oscillators.
