650 as midi clock generator

2002-10-23 by revtor@aol.com

wow, midi clock from a pulse train........      wow again!

"a 1u panel of MIDI transport controls"   now youre getting somewhere..   modular MIDI !!  maybe a 1u panel with say 4 knobs and 4 jacks..  these would output -5to+5v and also send MIDI CC messages...  hmm..  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..   MAybe have the 650 as the MIDI brain of the midi modules, with each one connected to it via a ribbon, and the 650 could handle the thinking and in/out of the midi commands..  Maybe a module that would read midi CC's and just be a field of jacks outputting cv's based on the cc's?..  so you'd have your 320 timing your whole rig and then some sequencer doing all kinds of fades and changes using midi cc's  and the forementioned module. maybe a variable lag on all the cc outputs to keep any stepping out of the way.

seems like a great way to bring MIDI integration into our modulars..  lead the way Paul!!!!

Hmmm.....not to give much away for future plans, but you will be covered in this area.

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

Look, let's just say there are MANY modules in the '600 series that ...errr....ahhh..."integrate"
CV with MIDI and all sorts of mangles in-between. Save your $$$.

erm,
i think my outgoing mail is suffering from some kind of time lag at the
moment
