Cv/Mod/Gate; Midi Devices; Clock Sources/Destinations; With An Ipad - Arturia Keystep User Manual

2.1.2.1

CV/Mod/Gate

KeyStep will send control voltages to non-MIDI devices through its Pitch, Mod and Gate
connectors. It also can send data to those devices from the USB port of your computer.
2.1.2.2

MIDI devices

Lots of mid-vintage devices have MIDI jacks but don't have CV/Gate connectors or USB
ports. KeyStep can plug directly into them and also serve as a USB MIDI converter.
2.1.2.3

Clock sources/destinations

The Clock input and output connectors allow KeyStep to synchronize with lots of different
clock types: a single pulse per step, two pulses per step, 24 pulses per quarter note
(ppqn), and 48 ppqn. Between these four options you are ready to connect with almost
any imaginable music technology.
See section 7.2.2 for specific information about what cables to use for the various sync
connections and formats.
2.1.3

...with an iPad

Add a camera connection kit and KeyStep becomes the perfect companion for an iPad.
This enables it to be used as a controller for Arturia's iMini, iSem or iProphet
applications, for example.
If you have an iPad but you don't already own those virtual instruments, please take a
look at them on our website! They are very affordable, and live up to Arturia's reputation
for modeling the sound of analog synthesizers with warmth and precision.
