Button 5 (CV INPUT)
Two CV IN jacks are available on the minilogue xd. These jacks let you control the internal param-
eters via CV (control voltage) input, by connecting a modular synthesizer or other device to the
minilogue xd. CV/Gate signals are also supported.
CV IN Mode
Sets the input mode for the CV IN 1, 2 jacks.
Modulation: Controls the parameters assigned in "CV IN1 Assign" (p.33) and "CV IN2 Assign"
(p.33).
The input voltage range in modulation mode is from –5V to 5V.
Tip:
CV/Gate: CV1 IN1 is the input jack for pitch CV signals, and CV2 IN2 is the input jack for gate
signals. Standard CV (control voltage) and gate signals will play the notes on the minilogue xd.
The CV input voltage range in CV/Gate mode is from –3V to 5V. Inputting a 1V signal
Tip:
will generate a C4 note. The minilogue xd is compatible with standard volt/oct signals. The
ideal gate signal is a 0–5V pulse.
CV IN1 Assign
This sets the parameters that are controlled by the CV inputted to the CV IN1 jack.
The parameters that can be assigned are the same as those for Y+ Assign. See "Y+ Assign" (p.32)
for details.
The parameters cannot be set when CV IN Mode is set to "CV/Gate."
Note:
CV IN1 Range
This sets the degree of change to the parameters by the CV inputted to the CV IN1 jack.
CV IN2 Assign
This sets the parameters that are controlled by the CV inputted to the CV IN2 jack.
The parameters that can be assigned are the same as those for Y+ Assign. See "Y+ Assign" (p.32)
for details.
The parameters cannot be set when CV IN Mode is set to "CV/Gate."
Note:
CV IN2 Range
This sets the degree of change to the parameters by the CV inputted to the CV IN2 jack.
Button 6 (PITCH SETTINGS)
Microtuning
Sets the microtuning for the program.
Equal Temp: Spacing all semitones at equal pitch intervals, this temperament is the most widely
used.
Pure Major: Major chords in the primary key selected will be perfectly in tune.
Pure Minor: Minor chords in the primary key selected will be perfectly in tune.
Pythagorean: This ancient Greek scale is especially effective for playing melodies. It consists of
perfect fifths; however, other intervals—the major third in particular—will sound out of tune.
Werckmeister: The Werckmeister III scale was used in the later Baroque period, providing equal
temperament tuning.
Kirnberger: The Kirnberger III scale is used mainly for tuning harpsichords.
Slendro: This is an Indonesian gamelan scale with five notes per octave.
Pelog: This is an Indonesian gamelan scale with seven notes per octave.
Ionian: This is a major scale with seven notes per octave.
Dorian: This is a scale with seven notes per octave, with the sixth note of the Ionian scale raised a
semitone.
Aeolian: This is a natural minor scale with seven notes per octave.
Major Penta: This is a major pentatonic scale.
