I've five midi synths and one CV/Gate mono SH101 and just wondering if the Cirklon CVIO option would be overkill.... and an expensive way of sequencing just that one synth via this method? I may add another mono at a much later date, but that's only 50/50 chance. Also the CV breakout box seems to be massive with loads of CV sockets etc which just won't be used in my set-up... Any opinions please? Thanks, John

A Kenton Pro Solo new is 116ukp and the upcharge on the Cirklon is 200ukp. They are a little different but it seems the price differential is close enough to make the CVIO option reasonable and if you get a modular rig or some other monosynth in the future you are already hooked up. I suppose it depends on if the 84ukp savings is worth the integration by having another piece or if the savings of 200ukp is worth not using your monosynth with the Cirklon - which seems a bit of a waste but perhaps not depending on your music.

Thanks James. I've realised apart from it's CV/Gate output, the Kenton Pro Solo Mk2 also outputs din sync, and 12, 24, or 48 clocks per quarter note which will be essential to drive my LM2 (48 cpqn). These extras, plus the cash saving are steering me towards the CVIO less Cirklon + kenton Pro Solo Mk2....... Colin is there a way to "advance" midi timing to an individual Cirklon port? For in my example to compensate for any latency introduced by the the conversion from Cirklon midi out > Kenton > CV/Gate out? That must introduce at least a few milliseconds of latency.

Can someone clarify what exactly the extra £200 for the CVIO Cirklon gets you? Is it a) a 25-pin D-connector on the rear panel of the sequencer or b) an actual external break box ? If the standard Cirklon (£999) comes with the 25 pin connector, then it must be possible to "upgrade" and add the breakout box at a later date....?

No pin connector with the standard cirklon, just a blanking plate. I'm not sure but it probs can be retro fitted. It you are remotely interested in cv then having this fitted is a no-brainer. And yes the extra cost does cover the break-out box I believe.

ok, so the next question is: can the CVIO option be ordered and (easily) installed on site or does the Cirklon need to go back to Sequentix ?

If anyone's interested I have a Kenton Pro2000 for sale or swaps. Just don't seem to need it now, especially as Cirklon can also work as a MIDI/USB interface driving synths on my iPad. :) Paul

Can Cirklon also be used to record audio into Logic (or other) ? Ian On Monday 11 July 2011 at 09:55, Paul Nagle wrote: > If anyone's interested I have a Kenton Pro2000 for sale or swaps.

What's your exact setup + workflow? Is it Cirklon midi ins/ outs direct to your hardware synths, with Logic MTC sync to Cirklon, with Logic recording audio? Thanks. John

I don't do very much of this actually, I prefer to keep my work and my fun separate. So Logic is almost always used with softsynths and my live stuff based around hardware. Usually if I sync to Logic at all (i.e. to test some Cirklon functionality), I have it as master with Cirklon driving the hardware gear. I would typically record the audio into Logic tracks and then shunt it around as per any loop. The vast majority of my own tracks I've recorded in the past, heck, years and years, have been done in one pass straight to stereo from P3 (now Cirklon). I've recorded the bulk of what I've done directly into Wavelab, warts and all. Alas, can't have warts in my "proper" music... -- Paul --- http://www.softroom.co.uk http://www.youtube.com/WilyEPeyote
