The four 1/4 in jacks aren't just for sending tempo. They can each be assigned one of four functions:
Tempo Out
Connect to any pedal or device that accepts external tap inputs or analog time controls (ex: our Arp-87 Delay or Monument Tremolo). Canvas Clock can send analog clock and MIDI clock at the same time. No more relying on your feet to keep perfect time.
CV (Control Voltage) Out
Control any device that accepts CV. Good for Analog Synths, Drum Machines, or similar devices.
Switch Input
Each jack can be configured to receive input from two external footswitch controls. The switches are connected to the Tip (left) and Ring (right) of the associated 1/4 in jack. These can be assigned to many functions available on the pedal with the ability to add more options via a software update.
Expression In
Connect an expression pedal, and use it to send a MIDI CC message out to a pedal connected to the Clock. The "Toe Down" and "Heel Down" values can be adjusted to fine- tune the controlled parameter range. Use this to adjust the mix of a reverb or the depth of a tremolo (via MIDI out).
Footswitches
Footswitches for the Clock are customizable. Eliminate the "bending over between songs to make adjustments portion of a set" by assigning one of the onboard functions to the A and/or B switches:
• Advance to the next song
• Go back to the previous song
• Advance to the next setlist
• Go back to the previous setlist
• Toggle the metronome start and stop
• Global tap tempo
Sync
The "Sync" jack found on top of the pedal can be set in two ways:
• Input - Great for accepting BPM from an external source.
• Output - Great for syncing external devices, such as a Eurorack device, a Roland Volca Synth, and many other devices.
Some external devices send/receive clock signals that are "double" the standard timing signals, so Walrus Audio included the option to send/receive a 1x or 2x signal, depending on the specific device's needs. Users can also determine the subdivision of the BPM to send out.
Metronome
If active, the Clock metronome can be heard via the MET OUT port at the top of the pedal. This signal can be sent to a front of house console for live gigs or a monitor for practicing. Metronome type, volume, and accent note controls can all be edited in the Metronome Menu.
Songs
There are 128 "Song" slots available to users in the Canvas Clock. You can think of each song as an editable preset where you can adjust the song name, meter, BPM, MIDI Macros, and metronome start or stop. Once your song is edited to your liking, every time it is recalled it will operate just the way you set it!
Setlists
Keeping your songs organized is crucial for live sets, which is why with the Clock, songs can be grouped together and navigated through easily using the Setlist feature. Once you access setlist settings, you can select songs from your master song list to curate and reorder in the way you'd want them for a gig or practice. Once your setlist is saved and active, going through the setlist in real-time will recall these songs and all their settings in the order you curated them for that setlist.
MIDI Macros
For the MIDI-minded players who may want further control over their rig, there are standard MIDI commands that can be triggered when you recall songs with the Clock. MIDI Macros allow users to create one or a series of MIDI CC or PC messages that get sent out of the Canvas Clock when a specific song is recalled. Users have 128 adjustable Macros with 15 messages per MIDI Macro, which can be useful in further dictating how you want your MIDI devices to behave during certain songs, (ex: bypassing some pedals but engaging others).

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
