SEQUENCERS
MAQ16/3
MAQ16/3 The MAQ16/3 combines the creative potential of an analogue sequencer with the advantages of MIDI. It outputs the sequencing data both as control voltages (3x CV & 3x Gate) and as MIDI events. The main feature of the MAQ 16/3 is the real time access to the sequence via 48 rotary controls grouped in 3 rows of 16 each. All important parameters like first/last step, MIDI event type, MIDI channel, forward/backward/random/pendulum mode, gate time, tempo and so on are independently assigned to each row and can be changed in real time while the sequencer is running. The MAQ16/3 can be synchronised by MIDI Clock, Start and Stop either as master or as slave. £599
CONTROLLERS
R2m
R2m £249
The R2M is a ribbon controller that generates control signals by moving the finger across the ribbon manual. The output signals are generated as Midi and CV/Gate simultaneously allowing the R2M to control both Midi and CV/Gate based equipment (e.g. analogue synthesizers or analogue modular systems). R2M is the abbreviation for Ribbon to (2) MIDI. The R2M is made of two parts: the manual and the control box. For the manual the same type as the for the modular version A-198 is used. It includes a 50 cm position sensor and a pressure sensor. The control box converts the data coming from the manual (finger position and pressure) into the corresponding Midi data and CV/Gate voltages.
The control box is available without the manual to make use of an already existing A-198 manual.
MANUAL: has very precise and sensitive position sensor (length 50 cm) that responds even to light finger touch sensible pressure sensor located below the position sensor solid metal frame (double U-shape profile), silver-grey colour with several M3 threads on all sides (e.g. to mount the manual on a base or to mount several manuals together or to fix a strap etc ...) measures: about 600mm length x 30mm width x 18mm high, weight: about 900 g connection to the control box via 4-pin cable (1m cable supplied)
CONTROL BOX: receives the analogue resistance data coming from the position and pressure sensor of the manual and converts these information into Midi date and CV/Gate voltages
operation by 10 buttons, 6 blue LEDs and illuminated 2 line LCD
MIDI messages can be assigned to the two sensors: note on/off (without pitch bend) note on/off (with pitch bend), pitch bend, after touch or any MIDI controller), program change and "Trautonium" mode: in this special mode only a single note on message is generated when the position sensor is touched. After that only pitch bend messages are generated until the finger is lifted off.
12 bit pitch bend resolution, MIDI channel, control change number and pitch scale can be adjusted
quantization option, i.e. only certain notes (e.g. only major or minor notes) are generated
adjustable manual scaling (i.e. which length of the manual corresponds to one octave, full length is max. 5 octaves)- inverse scaling is possible (important if e.g. the manual is put on with a strap)
arpeggiator function: permanent arpeggio or synced arpeggio, in case of synced arpeggio the tempo can adjusted at the R2M or MIDI clock can be used for arpeggio speed . MIDI input (for arpeggio clocking)
MIDI output resolution of the analog manual data: 12 bit simultaneous output of MIDI data and CV/Gate voltages 2 CV outputs: CV1 outputs the position sensor data (1V/octave standard, 0...max. +5V, i.e. max. 5 octaves) CV2 outputs the pressure sensor data (0...+5V) Gate output (corresponds to CV1) Gate can be configured as voltage gate (0/+5V) or switched trigger (jumper inside the box) adjustable gate polarity: normal: 0 -> +5V when the sensor is touched inverse: +5V -> 0V when the sensor is touched
CV output resolution: 12 bit all settings (e.g. scaling, quantization, arpeggio and so on) affect both MIDI and CV/Gate outputs CV hold and active Gate are possible at the same time, no CV drift in hold mode, 16 user defined presets (non volatile memory for 16 complete settings of the unit)
solid, silvergrey metal case (desktop shape) measures: about 128mm width x 91mm depth x 26mm height (front) and 42mm height (rear)
weight: about 400g
supplied with external power supply
CONVERTERS
MSY2
MSY2 FrontMSY2 rear The MSY2 is a MIDI to clock interface that converts MIDI realtime events CLOCK, START and STOP into the corresponding signals CLOCK and START/STOP of the SYNC standard (as used by vintage drum computers or sequencers such as the Roland TR808 and TB303). SYNC-START/STOP is a signal that indicates on the 2 possible states: START = +5V, STOP = 0V. The MSY2 allows the reduction of the tempo by dividing the incoming MIDI clock frequency by any value between 1 and 16 with 4 DIP switches. 1 corresponds to the 1:1 conversion, 16 is the maximum of frequency reduction, i.e. after 16 MIDI clocks 1 SYNC clock appears. The polarity of the CLOCK signal and the polarity of the START/STOP can be chosen by 2 DIP switches.


Not supplied with a PSU as can be powered from MIDI, but we recommend using a PSU (£7)
£75
MCV4
MCV4 frontMCV4 rear The MCV4 is a MIDI-to-CV/GATE-Interface. CV1 (1v/octave) is generated from key data, CV2 is generated from Aftertouch data, CV3 is generated from either Velocity or Controller 7 (Volume) data and CV4 is generated from any MIDI controller number or Velocity. Gate/Trigger can be V-Trig or S-Trig. The MIDI Velocity data can multiply the data produced by the controller data.


Now supplied with a PSU as standard

CTM64 (64 way Contact to MIDI)
CTM64 CTM64

The CTM64 is a universal MIDI out kit. Up to 64 free contacts can be connected to generate MIDI note on/off or program change messages. Up to 4 pots can be connected to generate common MIDI controllers, pitch bend and aftertouch. Additionally a 1/4" jack socket is available for connecting a sustain pedal. Two different modes are selected with the first of 8 jumpers: note on/off or program change. In the note mode , closing of a contact generates the corresponding MIDI note on messsage, opening generates note off - both without velocity (velocity is fixed at 100). In the program change mode, closing of a contact leads to the corresponding MIDI program change message. The CTM64 has MIDI In and Out. The incoming MIDI messages are merged to the data generated ny the CTM64. (several CTM64's can be linked together).
Please note that the CTM64 is not supplied with a power supply, as power is likely to be sourced from the equipment being interfaced. The optional power supply is £7

The CTM64 connecting cable set (7 cables with IDC plugs fitted one end) is available for £19

MTC64 (64 way MIDI to Contact/Gate)
MTC64 MTC64

The MTC64 is a universal MIDI in Kit. Up to 64 MIDI note on/off or program change messages can be converted into 64 TTL voltages (0/+5V). In note on/off mode (without velocity) incoming MIDI note on/off messages control the 64 outputs provided that the MIDI channel and note range correspond to the settings of the MTC64. A note on message will set the corresponding TTL output to a high level (+5V), the note off message will reset the output to a low level (0V). With an additional jumper this behaviour can be set to the other way round (note on = low, note off = high) if reversed outputs are required. In program change mode, MIDI program change messages are used to control the 64 outputs. In this mode only one of the 64 outputs is activated. The number of the activated output is identical to the program change number received.
Please note that the MTC64 is not supplied with a power supply, as power is likely to be sourced from the equipment being interfaced. The optional power supply is £7.

The MTC64 cable set (4 cables with IDC plugs fited one end) is available for £15
