Familiarity with your computer
In explaining how to use ClockWorks, this chapter 
assumes that you are already familiar with the standard 
computer interface conventions, such as how to select 
options using menus, check boxes, radio buttons, etc. and 
how to type and edit text, and so forth.
Opening ClockWorks
When you first launch ClockWorks, the default view for 
ClockWorks is the MIDI Routing window (Figure 5-1), 
which displays the current MIDI processing configu-
ration.
If your MOTU interface doesn’t appear
If your MOTU interface doesn’t appear in the Window 
menu, check the following things:
■
Your MOTU interface is turned off. Power it up and 
choose 
Refresh 
from the ClockWorks File menu.
■
A MOTU interface is not connected to the computer, or 
it is connected improperly. Make sure your cable 
connection(s) to the interface match Figure 2-1 and 
Figure 2-2 on page 9.
■
Mac users: open Audio MIDI Setup and make sure that 
the interface is present in your current studio setup. If not, 
scan for it as explained in “Launching Audio MIDI Setup” 
on page 17.
■
If you make any adjustments to your hardware, choose 
Refresh 
from the ClockWorks File menu.
THE FILE MENU
Here is a brief explanation of each item in the ClockWorks 
File menu.
Devices
Any MOTU MIDI interfaces that have successfully 
established communication with ClockWorks appear at 
the top of the File menu. Choose a device to open its 
window, or bring its window to the front.
Load Configuration
The 
Load Configuration
 menu item opens a previously 
saved ClockWorks document and restores all of the 
MOTU interface settings saved in the document.
