A. ¼” SYNTH OUT: Outputs mix of preamp output and internal
synth voices as set by the OUT MIX knob.
B. ¼” SUSTAIN input: Connect normally-open sustain pedal here
(not included) to “hold” the synth voice as well as CV and MIDI
outputs.
C. 9v DC input: Use included 2mm diameter center-negative PSU
or equivalent. PSU must be able to provide minimum 100mA.
D. ¼” PRE OUT: +4dBu or -20dBu preamp output after automatic
gain control (AGC).
E. Combo XLR or balanced/unbalanced ¼” INPUT: Monophonic*
audio input, level can range from mic to line level.
*Note: The UniSyn is designed for monophonic audio inputs,
meaning it is best suited for handling musical input played one
note at a time. It is possible to achieve pleasing effects with some
polyphonic inputs but the UniSyn will always try to interpret the
input as a single note.
On a related note, the UniSyn can only produce a single pitch CV
and a single envelope CV at a time and can only produce one MIDI
note at a time, whose pitch may be modulated due to pitch bends.
