The Midi Controller in SPAWN is a high spec Midi to CV convertor.
Having many functions found on the A.S. RS330 module. Through careful
design this midi convertor can not only control many functions on
SPAWN but it can also control other analogue synthesizers that do not
have Midi built in. For ease of use 5 control routes can be pre-patched to
SPAWN allowing instant playability straight from the box
These two sockets are identical
outputs of the IV/OCT control voltage
from the Midi-CV Convertor.
1/ CV to VCO
Note that this internal patch by-passes the Glide control on SPAWN. If Glide is required when using Midi,
Midi controller no.65 must be activated, and rate of Glide controlled by Midi controller 05 (portamento).
2/ MOD Wheel.
To the Midi-CV MOD VCA. Using the MOD Wheel function on your keyboard/controller the Midi CV MOD VCA can be operated.
3/ CV to the VCF.
This is a non attenuated control input to VCF the filter will track the keyboard/controller at IV/OCT.
4/ Expression.
In addition the cutoff frequency of the VCF can be controlled by Midi controller no11 (expression) this is a powerful
function of SPAWN allowing for realtime manipulation of the filter.
5/ Gate to the Envelope Shaper.
This will cause the envelope to operate (controlling the VCF and VCA). (Note on note off from the Midi kb/controller).
With the switch in the ‘isolated’ position none of the forementioned patches are made. Unless externally patched
SPAWN will not respond to Midi.
*Note whether the Midi routing switch is in internal or isolated mode all the Midi-CV functions are available on the
10 sockets in the Midi section.
The Midi Routing switch controls the internal routing
from the Midi-CV Convertor to five control inputs with-
in SPAWN. With the switch in the ‘Internal Routing’
position the following internal patches are made.
