[sdiy] Reaktor and CV

[James R. Coplin]

Just to clarify and answer a couple of questions...
 
The absolute output range of the MOTU for anything audio or cv appears to be
around -4.7v to 4.7 volts. However, offsets don't move the range. In other
words, even though there appears to be 9.4v range to work with you can never
get above or below the +/- 4.7v range by applying offsets or whatever.
 
The MOTU inputs appear to *not* be DC-coupled. Audio rate stuff of course
works fine but you cannot use the inputs for CV from external gear unless it
starts to approach audio range (big fast envelopes, fast LFO's etc.).
Bummer.
 
Does anybody make a A->D converter that could be stuck onto TDIF or light
pipe which would be DC-coupled? If so there could really be the makings of
an impressive digital analog hybrid. I'm already extremely pleased with the
results of outputting reactor to my Serge and 2600 to create some really
nice FM type stuff which would be nearly impossible otherwise.
