  • Page 3: Short Description

    1. Short description The "µMCLK Divider" module can either work as a MIDI clock divider or as an analog clock divider. The divider outputs are assigned differently in both operating modes. After receiving a MIDI start command, the module works as a MIDI clock divider. There are fixed dividers on 11 outputs.

  • Page 5: Midi Connections

    2.3 MIDI connections The module has two MIDI sockets (TRS-B standard mini jacks) INPUT and THRU. Connect the MIDI input to the MIDI output of your keyboard / sequencer or computer. The data received at MIDI-IN is forwarded via MIDI-THRU. A corresponding commercially available adapter (MIDI-DIN to Mini TRS- B) or a 3.5mm (1/8 inch) stereo jack cable is used for the MIDI connection.

  • Page 6: Handling

    3. HANDLING 3.1 MODE: MIDI-CLOCK-DIVIDER Connect the MIDI input of the module to the MIDI output of a device that can send MIDI start / stop and clock commands. The device must be able to send MIDI note commands for the trig- ger output KEYS.

  • Page 7: Midi Divider Outputs

    3.2 MIDI DIVIDER OUTPUTS In MIDI mode, 11 divider outputs have clock dividers that are derived from the MIDI clock. These are printed on the front panel. Some rhythms have been shifted to create OFFBEATS. The LEDs signal the rhythms while the MIDI clock is running. The number of clock pulses is specified in the MIDI standard.

  • Page 8: Keys Trigger Output / Learn Function

    3.3 OUTPUT “KEYS” PLAYABLE VIA MIDI KEYBOARD If the module works in MIDI divider mode, different clock triggers can be generated on the KEYS output with the help of transmitted MIDI notes within a 3 octave range. This is comparable to a DRUM sound expander, in which different drum instruments are assigned to the notes.

  • Page 9: Mode: Analog-Clock-Divider / Reset Function

    3.4 MODE: ANALOG-CLOCK-DIVIDER If the module is in stop mode (i.e. after switching on or when a MIDI stop command has been received), the module can work as an analog clock divider. The clock pulses arriving at the CLOCK input are divided and output at the 12 divider outputs. These dividers are different than in MIDI clock divider mode (printed dividers) and can also be reprogrammed using SYSEX.

  • Page 10: Analog Clock Divider Assignment

    3.5 ANALOG-CLOCK-DIVIDER ASSIGNMENT The dividers of the outputs in analog clock divider mode can also be reprogrammed using SYSEX. Some SYSEX files are available for this. These can be loaded with a MIDI SYSEX dump program (e.g. MIDI-OX or Elektron C6) from a computer via MIDI. After receiving the SYSEX file, the data is saved permanently.
