RE: Re: [Doepfer_a100] A-192-2 with CV-only sequencer and DX7 midi synth?

2013-09-08 by willthomaslong@yahoo.com

Thanks for the reply!


Yes, I'm trying to use the MC-4 to sequence notes on the DX7, and record them from the DX7 output (the same way you'd connect an analog monosynth with the MC-4, but without the converter in between).


But the MCV-4 and the A-192-2 convert in different directions, only one-way each. For instance, the MCV-4 is MIDI to CV, and the A-192-2 is CV-MIDI.


I'd guess the A-192-2 would work in this case, right?


Thanks!

What are you trying to do? If you're trying to play notes on the DX-7 and record them on the MC-4, then yes, that should work using the MCV-4 or A-192-2 to convert them. I haven't tried this, but the Yamaha and Doepfer devices both use the MIDI standard very well, and the Doepfer and Roland ones use the 1V/Oct standard very well, so it should work fine.

Hope that helps,
