Note: Set CC to Voice in order to use Poly 2 with MPE compatible devices

Clock

 – This setting allows to translate the incoming MIDI Clock signal to the chosen output.

Note: Set the value of voltage being sent when MIDI Clock is received (0-5V or 0-10V) in Config Menu > 
Gate > Voltage.

Multiplier – the standard MIDI message send 24 PPQN (Pulses per quarter note). In
Eurorack world most module’s clock operates on 4 PPQN. The value of Multiply can
change the clock conversion rate.

Start/Stop

 – Sets the chosen output to convert the MIDI Transport values into Gates.

Note: Set the value of voltage being sent when MIDI Transport message is received (0-5V or 0-10V) in 
Config Menu > Gate > Voltage.

Off

 – It’s sometimes useful to turn off the out-coming signal.

Configuration

Octave Offset

 – allows to choose the middle C note convention by changing incoming notes

in a range of four octaves up and down. If Poly 2 is converting the incoming MIDI Notes to a
different octave than the ones received, this means that the transmitting device has a
different middle C convention setting. Align the octaves here.

Note: An excellent example of different Middle C conventions are programs like Apple Logic and Ableton 
Live (MIDI Note C2 is not the same value as C2 in Ableton Live).

Gate

:

Voltage – changes the values of the transmitted volts for the Gate, Clock and
Start/Stop parameter.
Reverse – changes the phase of the Gate outputs voltage.

Pitch

 – sets one of the three-pitch conventions: V/Oct, Hz/V, Buchla standard (1.2V/Oct).

MIDI output

:

Smart thru – allows to daisy-chain multiple Poly 2 units to expand the number of
