Trigger Processor:
This lets you change either type of trigger signals (
by means of the Reverse switch.
Junctions:
These are additional jacks for simultaneous control of a number of synthesizer units or modules (VCO,
VCF, VCA, EG, MG, etc.).
Using the keyboard of a Hz/V type synthesizer to simultaneously play (control) an OCT/V type synthesizer
- Hz/V to OCT/V conversion
(1) Connect synthesizer A (Hz/V) and synthesizer B (OCT/V) as shown by the solid lines.
(2) Set the octave (scale) selectors on both synthesizers to 8' and set the tuning knobs to the center position.
(3) While playing the lowest note on the A keyboard, use the MS-02 Log Amp Frequency knob and the
synthesizer B tuning knobs to match the pitch of B with that of A.
If you cannot get the same pitch by this method, change the connections to those shown by the dotted
lines. Turn the Adding Amp Ch-2 level knob to the central x1 position and then slowly raise the Ch-1
knob. This will greatly increase the pitch of synthesizer B. If you need to lower the pitch of B, change the
Adding Amp connection from the Ch-2 input jack to the Ch-1 input jack. Then set the Ch-1 level to x1 and
adjust the pitch with the Ch-2 level knob.
(4) While playing the highest note on the A keyboard, adjust the Log Amp Width knob so that the pitch of B
matches the pitch of A.
If you are using the Adding Amp and you can't get the pitch of B to match that of A, use the knob you
set to x1 to roughly readjust the pitch.
(5) Repeat steps (3) and (4) as necessary until the scales of synthesizers A and B are perfectly matched.
Using the keyboard of a OCT/V type synthesizer to simultaneously play (control) an Hz/V type synthesizer
- OCT/V to Hz/V conversion
(1) Connect synthesizer A (OCT/V) and synthesizer B (Hz/V) as shown by the solid lines.
(2) Set the octave (scale) selectors on both synthesizers to 8' and set the tuning knobs to the center position.
(3) While playing the lowest note on the keyboard of synthesizer A, (the note that produces a CV OUT
voltage of 0V) adjust the MS-02 Anti Log Amp Frequency knob and set the synthesizer B tuning knobs so
that the pitch of B matches that of A.
If you cannot get the same pitch by this method, change the connections to those shown by the dotted
lines. Make sure that the Adding Amp Ch-2 level knob is set to "0". Then perform rough pitch adjustment
using the Ch-1 level knob.
(4) While playing the highest note on the keyboard of synthesizer A, (the note that produces the highest
absolute value of the CV OUT voltage) use the Anti Log Amp Width knob to adjust the pitch of B so that it
matches the pitch of A.
(5) Repeat steps (3) and (4) as necessary until the scales of A and B are perfectly matched.
Using Sq-10 to control a synthesizer having
- using the SQ-10 to control a synthesizer having positive trigger signals
If you employ the trigger processor on the MS-02, you can use the Korg SQ-10 Analog Sequencer for
automatic control of any brand of synthesizer equipped with VCO CV IN and EG TRIGGER IN input jacks.
The figure above shows one example of how to connect the three units.
