MIDI to CV Converter

MUC-810-KIT (DIY-Version)

from

EDV-Technik-TS / Germany

Converter-Functions:

• Up to 16 simultaneously working CV outputs that can be used for the issue of 1 Volt /Octave, Hz/Volt , Velocitiy , Release, Pitch and 128  Controller values.
  
  
• A maximum of 12 VCOs including gate/trigger signals can be controlled independently of each other.
  
  
• Up to 24 trigger, gate, sync signals. The 8 digital outputs provide a level value of 5V (optionally 10V when you remove solder bridge on the soldering side of the pcb).
  
  
• The 16 CV outputs can be configured with a  maximum voltage level of 3V to 10V.
  
  
• Free assignment of the 16 possible MIDI channels and the 128 controller values.
  
  
• The pulse width of the trigger, re-trigger and sync signals can be set from 2ms to 0.5sec for each output.
  
  
• Sync signals: Clock (with any prescaler), Start, Stop, Start/Stop, Stop/Start (reset sequencer).
  
  
• Polyphony with up to 8 voices including velocity. Plurality of  adjustable priorities regarding the selection of already active voices or notes. The maximum number of 8 voices may be split to different MIDI channels.
  
  
• For the Volt/Octave function Pitch Bend and Glide can be added in different strengths.
  
  
• Glide support for Controllers, Velocity, Release, Channel Pressure and Poly Pressure.
  
  
• Configuration of simple ADSR envelopes.
  
  
• Autoglide support.
  
  
• Splitting the note space into an upper and lower range for playing two synthesizers with one keyboard.
  
  

Technical Specifications:

• 16 CV outputs with a resolution of 16 bits for variable control voltages such as Volt/Octave , Hz/V, Velocity , Release , Pitch Bend and  Controller values.
  
  
• 5 Voltage ranges: 0V..5V , 0V..10V , -2.5V..2.5V , 5V..5V , -5V..0V (e.g. for controlling up to 16 VCFs).
  
  
• Furthermore, the CV outputs can also be configured for trigger, gate or sync signals with a selectable maximum control voltage from 3 to 10V.
  
  
• 8 digital control outputs V-Trig 5V (10V when you remove solder bridge) for trigger , gate and sync signals.
  
  
• Up to 8 additional S-trigger outputs are optionally available on the circuit board.
  
  
• 3 MIDI ports: MIDI In, MIDI Out, MIDI Thru.
  
  
• Status LED connection for the visualization of incoming MIDI data.
  
  
• Short-circuit-proof driver circuit of all 24 outputs, which can provide a control current of up to 10mA. Thus, there is the possibility of  multiple inputs to be wired in parallel with one of these outputs.
   
• Big display with a display size of 4 x 20 characters for a clear representation of the configured outputs.
  
  
• All parameter settings are immediately saved in a flash memory. Sorage up of to 4 setups.
  
  
• Spread adjustment for each CV outputs via 16 potentiometers (already correctly calibrated from delivery).
  
  
• Tune/offset settings via the menu control (Step size: 0, 32mV).
  
  
• Optionally, a total of 8 S-trigger outputs can be used in parallel with the V-trigger outputs. Please enquire!
  
  
• In addition to the separate 12V connection, it is also possible to use the S-100 BUS on the circuit board for the power supply.
  
  
• With the MUC- 8xx series , you can perform a firmware update via the MIDI In input. The current firmware version, you can always download free from our de-website edv-technik-ts.
  
  
• Only one power supply of 12V with approx. 95mA current consumption.
  
  
• Display dimension (cm):
  PCB:                 9,8 x 6,0
  Mounting holes: 9,3 x 5,5
  Viewing area:    7,6 x 2,6
  Metal frame:      9,7 x 4,0
  
  
• Circuit board dimension (cm):
  PCB:                 14,1 x 7,8
  Mounting holes: 9,3 x 6,8

What distinguishes the MUC (Model 8xx) from other products?

• The large number of channels (16 x CV + 8 x gate/trig).
  
  
• The high resolution of all CV channels of 16 bits. This makes it possible to combine V/Oct and pitch, among other things.
  
  
• The MUC offers the greatest range of functions and flexibility to date.
  
  
• Each individual CV channel is precisely calibrated with his own potentiometer.
  
  
• Quick and easy configuration using the large, clear display (4 x 20 character).
  
  
• EDV-Technik-TS has specialized in the field of "MIDI to CV Converter" systems and has over 15 years of experience. We also offer individual solutions, e.g. if you want a system with a note CV of 1.2V/oct.

Scope of delivery

• Fully assembled and calibrated circuit board.
  
  
• Pre-assembled display (blue) with backlighting.
  
  
• All necessary cable connections (9 pieces).

EDV-Technik-TS, a brief introduction:

EDV-Technik-TS has been active as a company for the development and series production of microcontroller-controlled systems since 2006. In 2010, we launched the first MIDI to CV controller, the MUC-200, on the market.
