Master clocks were relevant in complex setups that needed to synchronise audio with video running on separate machines or cope with digital routing between various devices using SPDIF, ADAT, etc. Here is an example of a master clock device made for that purpose:

Post-production editing of video and audio is increasingly being done "in-box" on a single non-linear editor, so the problem of synchronising outboard devices is becoming obsolete.
I assumed as much, the problem I have with the unit reviewed, is it seems to be simply for a single device, to which I can't fathom even a reason in principle to use it, let alone practice >_>
