MIDI 3 MANUAL
PITTSBURGH MODULAR SYNTHESIZERS
Extremely Full Featured MIDI to CV Converter
includes a complete set of mono and duophonic
midi response modes, dedicated CC and velocity
outputs, multiple clock source options, and
robust arpeggiator. This module is deep.
THREE PERFORMANCE
MODES
Monophonic Mode
works great when using
a modular as a single voice synthesizer patch.
Channel 2 Gate and CV outputs mirror the
outputs of Channel 1. Monophonic Mode has
several keyboard responses to choose from: last
note priority, low note priority, and high note
priority. Each response is available with and
without gate retriggering.
Duophonic Mode
uses the two sets of Gate
and CV outputs to allow two notes to be played
simultaneously. The first midi note is sent to
Channel 1 Gate and CV outputs and the second
is sent to Channel 2 Gate and CV outputs.
Duophonic Mode has three keyboard response
modes to choose from. Unused channel and new
note priority, unused channel and low note
priority, and split keyboard priority. Duophonic
mode is perfect when working with a two voice
modular synthesizer patch.
Arpeggiator Mode
includes multiple mono
and duophonic responses to choose from.
Available responses are monophonic response
as played, double triggered monophonic
response as played, random monophonic
response, random monophonic with a random
Channel 2 gate, and random duophonic
response with dual random gates. The
arpeggiator can be clocked using tap tempo,
midi clock, or external gate.

THREE CLOCK SOURCES

Internal Clock
utilizes the TAP tempo button
to modify the rate of the internal clock. The
internal clock is used to clock the arpeggiator
and is also output to the CLOCK jack.
External Midi Clock
responds to midi start/
stop messages and midi tempo from an external
midi clock source. The external midi clock is
used to clock the arpeggiator and is also output
to the CLOCK jack. In external midi clock mode,
the tap tempo button cycles through five
available clock divisions.
External Gate Clock
responds to gate
signals patched into the CLOCK jack. The
external gate clock is used to clock the
arpeggiator. With the external gate clock source,
the tap tempo button cycles through six available
clock divisions.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

can be assigned
to respond to all channels or any individual midi
channel.
