In order to control pre-MIDI synthesisers from a modern MIDI instrument or sequencer, you need to change the digital MIDI messages into the kind of signals the pre-MIDI synth can understand.
For the price, this really is the best value converter on the market, anywhere. The versatility of this unit is awesome. Just look at the features.
Power cord included, all other leads are sold separately as we do not know what you want to connect to.
Products bought directly from Kenton will be supplied with the appropriate power cord for the destination country.
Features
Power: 230v AC 50Hz (170v – 260v) or 115v AC 50/60Hz (85v – 130v).
We will include the correct power cord appropriate for the delivery address.
Dimensions: 280mm x 132mm x 42mm
Weight: 2.5Kg
MIDI: In Out and Thru
Outputs: CV on 3.5mm jack (V/oct or Hz/V)
Gate on 3.5mm jack (Gate or S-trig)
Aux on 3.5 mm jack
15 pin High Density D or 8 pin Mini Din (with optional expansion port)
Options: DCB port with cable, KADI/WASP port with cable
Please refer to the manual for more details
Designed to control all types of mono-synth
Super-fast response time
Famous Kenton build quality
Rugged steel case
Main CV outputs have high specification 16 bit D/A converters for rock-steady pitches
Auxiliary outputs have 12 bit D/A converters
Mains powered – internally selectable 230/115 volts (IEC socket on back panel)
Units are shipped pre-set to the correct voltage for your country
16×2 Character LCD display
24 memory locations for setups
MIDI IN socket
MIDI OUT socket (for MIDI channel filter and SysEx dumps)
MIDI THRU socket
DIN SYNC 24 socket
Clock output with selectable 1 to 12 cpqn plus 24 and 48 cpqn modes
Any MIDI channel can be selected for any output
Two COMPLETELY INDEPENDENT main CV outputs (this means ALL settings for synth outputs A & B)
Main CV outputs A & B are independently switchable for V/oct & Hz/V & 1.2V/oct scaling systems
Fine tune & scale are software controllable
Transpose (coarse tune) – up & down 12 semitones
Adjustable pitchbend range +/- 12 semitones
Programmable Gate V-trig (up to 15v) or S-trig (with or without pull-up)
Multiple and single trigger modes
Note priority selection – newest / lowest / highest
Old notes are remembered to facilitate trill effects and increase playability
Portamento on main CV outputs
Auto Portamento mode selectable on main CVs (where legato playing turns on Portamento)
Two different types of Portamento are selectable (fixed rate / fixed time)
Portamento Controllers are selectable
6 Programmable Auxilary outputs controllable by any MIDI controller on any MIDI channel
2 Programmable and independent LFOs – each with 9 wave shapes including random
LFO can modulate pitch &/or AUX outputs
Separate Controllers for LFO to CV and LFO to AUXes
LFOs can be synchronised to MIDI clock
Channel filter to ‘channelise’ an ‘omni-on’ synth
Polyphonic operation selectable with 3 note assignment types
All parameters are controllable in real-time by SysEx
SysEx dump and load of current program and any memory
Set-up are stored in non-volatile memory for easy recall
MIDI monitor mode – for easy MIDI troubleshooting
Optional add-on port for KADI on its own MIDI channel
