7
P 13
Fine tune (default: 0)
Range
-127 to +127 (approximately a semitone each way
– use P12 above if you need more)
- Fine tunes the mono-synth. This moves all notes up and down by the same amount.
P 14
Scale (default: 0)
Range
-127 to +127
- This is used to tune in the octave scaling of your analogue synth. It will only need adjusting if your
synth
sounds out of tune as you play further up the keyboard (see ‘Tuning in Your Analogue Synth’). -
Check whether CV type select has been set correctly (see ‘P 15’ below).
Note C (MIDI note#36) will not move (assuming transpose is not in operation) so get that in tune first
then tune the C two octaves above that by using this parameter.
P 15
CV
– Hz/V – 1.2V/oct select (default: CV)
- This should be set to V/oct [CV] for connecting to most synths, such as Roland, SCI, Octave,
Oberheim or Moog synths. Set it to Hz/V [Hz] if you are using either Yamaha or Korg mono-synths
(except the Monopoly which is volt per octave). A very small number of synths use 1.2 volts per
octave [12] (one tenth of a volt per semitone)
– in which case select this option.
P 16
Gate type select (default: G 05)
- you can select the following types for the GATE output:
Gate V-Trig +5v
[g 05]
Gate V-Trig +10v
[g 10]
Gate V-Trig max
[g 12] (just over 11v)
Gate is the most common signal used for telling a synth when to play its note. The 10v level Gate is
suitable for most synths, such as Roland, SCI, ARP, Oberheim. The 5V level gate may be needed for
synths that require a lower gate voltage such as the SH-101.
S-trig +5v pull-up
[S 05]
S-trig +10v pull-up
[S 10]
S-trig max pull-up
[S 12] (just over 11v)
S-trig +5v pullup would be used for most Moogs & Korgs, and the Yamaha CS range instead of Gate.
AUX1 output
P 20
AUX 1 controller number (default: 16)
- Sets which MIDI controller will control the auxiliary output. The following can be selected:
Off
[oFF]
Pitch bend
[Pbd]
Velocity
[VEL]
Aftertouch
[AFt]
MIDI controllers
0-119
P 21
AUX 1 minimum value (default: 0)
Range
-27 to +100
- Sets the level for the Auxiliary output when the MIDI controller source is at its minimum.
A value of 10 is approximately 1 volt
– so 100 is approx. 10 volts and –27 is approx.
−
2.7 volts
Note that minimum can be set above maximum so that the controller works backwards.
