Building the 1007 MIDI - CV MIDIMUSO OPTIMIZED FOR KOSMO FORMAT


THE MUSEUM OF EVERYTHING ELSE


via LMNC

"This is July’s Offering of the Kosmo Module a month project.

Its a multi function MIDI - CV module that is based around the CV12 chip made by midimuso

This module all in all has 12 CV outputs and 6 Trigger outputs. 2 MIDI THRU’s and also a MIDI SIGNAL LED

There has been some changes to the Midimuso code, for instance the action at which is works is return to bass, Also 0v is C

The CV12 has a massive amount of flexibility, you can have it as an extencive 1 channel midi to cv device, a 4 voice polyphonic midi-cv even a 6 channel midi to cv device

Not to mention the fact it can be chained together to expand even more!


most of the functions of this module are the same as the CV12 and information can be found HERE

THE MIDIMUSO MANUAL CAN BE FOUND HERE

I definitely recommend becoming acquainted with the information on the above linked page

As this module is basically a modular friendly version.

The front panel of the modular version labels the functions of the module in the 4 Channel MONO Mode, which the chip that comes with the module comes with that mode as default. HOWEVER, i will be also offering in a few weeks blank unlabelled panels to get hold of if you want to label your module panel for another one of the modes which you prefer (all you’d need is a silver sharpie).

CHANGES TO THE FUNCTION OF THE STANDARD MIDIMUSO/EXTRA PROGRAM CHANGE MODES

In order to change the modes on the midimuso it involves midi program changes, you send in program change 99 then the designated program change for the function you want to change, it is documented in the midimuso manual here. however to make things easy! Midimuso has included a folder of files that you play through any midi interface which does the changes for you the file can be found here. Either drag the file onto something like logic and play it through a midi interface or even a usb midi keyboard that has a midi out into the midi - cv module and you will have succesfully changed modes!!

Below are extra modes and changes added to the KOSMO version of midimuso, as it runs on return to bass mode aswell as retrigger mode from default.

Modes to enable / disable RTB or Retrig
Program change 99 followed by:
100 = Retrigger off
101 = Retrigger on
102 = Return To Bass (RTB) off
103 = Return To Bass (RTB) on

127 = PANIC! (Gives 3 short pulses on all pins on Port D and resets)"
