System A-100
1. Introduction
Module A-190-2 is an economically priced alternative to the
Midi-CV/SYNC interface A-190-1. It can be used in all cases
where the additional features of the A-190-1 are not
required (e.g. clock output, start/stop output). A-190-2 is the
modular version of the MCV4 interface.
These are the most important features of the A-190-2:
Midi-to-CV/Gate interface
Gate output 0/+5V
CV1: voltage derived from incoming Midi note
messages (0...+5V / 5 octaves), the glide control
affects this CV output
CV2: voltage derived from incoming Midi pitch bend
messages (-2.5 ... +2.5V)
CV3: voltage derived from the multiplication of
incoming Midi volume messages and the velocity
data of the note messages (0...+5V)
CV4: voltage derived from a freely adjustable Midi
control change message (0...+5V)
Midi channel, reference note for 0V CV1 and the
midi control change number for CV4 are adjusted by
means of the learn button.
Glide control: portamento/slew limiter function for
CV1
By means of two jumpers CV1 and Gate can be connected
to the corresponding lines of the A-100 bus.

    Whenever the LED is flashing without incoming Midi messages the learn mode is active. In this mode the A-190-2 is looking forward to an incoming Midi note on, program change or control change event (see table below). If one has entered the learn mode by mistake one can leave it by pressing the learn button again.
