im not even too sure why this would be useful, but modules based on
integrating MIDI into our systems is a new and modern direction for a
modular synth methinks

hello all,
well, i have the ball again and i'm to RUN !
this may well lead to a massive delay in the 650, or it'll turn into another
650 module (???) but, one thing that has always tempted me towards a Kenton
Control Freak was the control voltage to midi conversion. I've seen a couple
of DIY solutions on the web, one electronics based, one software / interface
(i started building the latter about two years ago). I think they're all
limited to 0-5V ranges, but i just love the idea of being able to (randomly)
control mixes from my modular, or purely being able to record random
voltages as midi information. i think on a general front, the re-integration
of modular synthesis into digital systems is a good thing, and has a whole
host of applications beyond merely placing a motorised fader under the
control of a sample & hold modules (or serious feedback patch)

anyway, just my tuppence worth

cheers
