Why support only Voyetras V24s MIDI Interface Card?
Voyetra’s V24s is the only MIDI interface card ever made with a complement of on board hardware timers (three altogether). This allows us to do such things as run clix and streamers simultaneously “free”, that is, without external SMPTE lock, and still be accurate to picture to within about one film frame in 10 minutes! This allows us also to generate time code while all this is going on so that Auricle can drive digital video and listening sequencers… great for rehearsing without the need to roll tape. But this also makes the Auricle essentially fail-safe on the scoring stage where, if time code fails for some reason, you can still record “wild” and have your music nevertheless match picture at the dub and not fear having to send an expensive orchestra home (see, e.g., Moonlighting, where there was no picture and thus no time code!). Also, since two of the three V24s timers are “ganged”, this allows Auricle to easily create beat values of up to four (4) seconds (15 BPM!) for those “
