INSERT BEFORE will create a new entry with a range ending on the note
preceding the current entry. Select by pressing [YES/SAVE].
INSERT AFTER will create a new entry with a range beginning on the note suc-
ceeding the current entry. Select by pressing [YES/SAVE].
CV CONFIG
CV/Gate output signals are calibrated and set up in this menu.
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. Pressing [FUNCTION] + [CV A-D] is an alternate way of opening
this menu for the corresponding CV/Gate output.
Please read the following paragraphs on how to set up CV pitch control. CV pitch is configured by finding the
voltages generating two different notes from the synthesizer you wish to control. To get a good result you should
select the notes two or three octaves apart.
Before configuring the pitch output you should setup a gate output so that notes can be triggered on the receiv-
ing end. You should also set up the gate and pitch parameters so that they use the same source track for trigger-
ing notes.
Select NOTE 1, it could for example be C3. Then highlight VOLTAGE 1 and press the [YES/SAVE] key. This will
trigger a C3 note which is played for as long as you hold down the key. While keeping [YES/SAVE] pressed,
adjust the voltage until the controlled synthesizer actually plays the note C3 using [ARROW] keys [LEFT]/
[RIGHT] or DATA ENTRY KNOB A. If you don’t have a tuning device, we recommend you play the correspond-
ing note on one of the Analog Keys internal tracks and tune by ear.
Repeat the process for NOTE 2 and VOLTAGE 2, but choose, for example, C5 or C6. Finally play some random
notes to see if they are in tune. If not, then you probably need to change from PITCH V/OCT to PITCH HZ/V, or
vice versa.
TYPE selects the type of signal that will be sent from the output. GROUNDED, PITCH V/OCT,
PITCH HZ/V, VALUE LIN, TRIG and GATE settings can be made. Depending on the selection,
different parameters will be available.
