CV CONFIG

Here the CV/Gate output signals are controlled.

CV A-D CONFIG

Each of the subpages are identical and one for each CV/Gate output exists. The list of available parameters in
this menu will depend on the menu settings. By pressing [FUNCTION] + [CV A-D] this menu will be opened for
the corresponding CV/Gate output.
TYPE selects the type of signal that should be sent from the output. PITCH V/OCT, PITCH
HZ/V, VALUE LIN, TRIG GATE and CLOCK settings can be made.
MIDDLE C is only visible when PITCH V/OCT is selected for the TYPE parameter. It sets the
overall tuning of the pitch CV.
TUNING is visible when the TYPE parameter has been set to anything but PITCH V/OCT. It
sets the overall tuning of the pitch CV.
V/OCT is only visible when PITCH V/OCT is selected for the TYPE parameter. It sets the pitch
width of the signal.
OCTAVE WIDTH is visible when the TYPE parameter has been set to anything but PITCH V/
OCT. It sets the pitch width of the signal.
TRIG POLARITY selects the polarity of trig signals sent. V-TRIG and S-TRIG options exist. V-
trig (voltage trigger) is a trig pulse going from 0 V to a user-defined voltage level. S-TRIG
(short circuit trigger) goes the other way, from a user-defined voltage level to 0 V. V-TRIG is
the most common trig polarity. S-TRIG is primarily used by older Moog, Korg and Yamaha
synths.

• GROUNDED turns the CV output off.
• PITCH V/OCT should be chosen for controlling the pitch of equipment using the volt
per octave standard, which applies to most analog synthesizers.
• PITCH HZ/V should be chosen for controlling the pitch of equipment using the herz
per volt standard, which applies to for example older Korg and Yamaha synths.
• VALUE LIN is used to send out arbitrary control voltages, useful when for instance
sequencing or parameter locking any voltage-controlled parameters on analog equip-
ment.
• TRIG is used to send out short trig pulses at the start of note events.
• GATE gives a longer pulse, with a duration of the whole note length.
