Kenton Pro-4 Analog Synth MIDI > CV Gate Converter


via this auction

"This is the Cadillac and undisputed king of CV/GATE converters. I've used many different CV converters over the years and currently own 4 of these units. I've also owned an Encore Expressionist, Doepfer, and JL Cooper device and this unit blows them all away. The metal knob on the front makes it very easy to access the various parameters.

Features:
* Can control up to 10 instruments at once
* CV/GATE/TRIG control of 4 monosynths or drum brains (Moog/ARP/Roland/etc.)
* Flexible gating - STRIG (pullup/no pullup/5V/15v) (for Moog/Korg), Gate V-trig (5v/15v) (for Roland/ARP), Trigger Pulse (5V, 15V) (to trigger ARP envelopes or drum machines/sequencers)
* 8 CV auxilliary outputs to control inputs on any synth (filter/volume/resonance) - assignable to any channel
* WASP port for controlling a WASP
* DCB port for control of Juno-60 or Jupiter-8
* KADI port for sending triggers to drum machines with KADI ports (like the TR-606 I'm selling in another auction)
* Optional (not included) HZ/Volt board for controlling Korg and Yamaha synths, and it actually scales properly, unlike the Encore
* MIDI in/out/thru
* Dedicated MIDI output for filtered MIDI channel for synths that always respond to all channels (DX7 etc.)
* Roland DIN Sync output
* 1/8" clock pulse output syncs to MIDI clock for triggering vintage drum machines or start/stop switches
* Owners manual
* Several memory locations to store setups with the option to load one at power up.
* Easy access initial note and scaling adjustment screws on front panel to ensure your synths scale properly. Great for synths with weird scaling like the Multimoog
* Portamento control
* 4 independent LFO's (trangle/saw (up/down)/pulsewidth (10/20/30/40%)/Sample & Hold/Square) that can be set to modulate any of the CV outputs or any 4 of the auxiliary outputs - each can sync to MIDI with clock divide (2/3/4/6/8/12/16/24 ratio) based on MIDI clock input
* Transpose (-24 to +24 semitones)
* Pitchbend (0 to +/- 24 semitones)
* Note Priority (low/high/newest)" via Rod.
