VMC - midi orientated eurorack modules with voltage control

"The VMC-System is a series of modules for Eurorack systems, which provide MIDI handling and (analog) clock handling in a broader sense. The modules are internally connected by an additional ribbon cable, which provides powersupply, MIDI busses and an analog clock bus. Basically this bus can be combined with the Fluxus Modules by http://soundcomplete.net/ if an adapter board is used.

The modules are distributed under the brand name fanwander.

The following modules are planned:
Euro-Pal: a euro rack version of the MIDI-Pal - with kind permission of Emilie Gillet (Merci beaucoup!). Clock-Man: a master clock generator for MIDI-clock, DIN-sync and analog clock. Assumingly including a shuffle and swing function.

Break-Beat: a bar orientated start / stop / restart function. The idea is based on the Mungo-Enterprises Sync2 (I give big kudos to John Pillans!).

DIN-2-CLK: a DIN-sync to analog clock converter. This will be the "professional" followup to my DIN-Sync to analogue clock interface

All modules are available as assembled modules and as kits. Frontpanels and PCBs may be sold separately.

At the moment a first production run has started with the following modules:"



"The VMC-1 is a generic module, which combines an ARDUINO NANO with a display, five buttons, three digital-inputs and two control voltage inputs with amount control.
This module may run various software.

At the moment (12/2021) I offer only the SQ-3P sequencer, but other programs like chord-trigger, voltage controlled MIDI-converts, or similar will follow soon.

You need at least one of the Input/Output modules listed below to connect the VMC-1 to youre MIDI-environment. For details see the VMC-1 users manual

Width: 18HP
Depth: 40mm

Powerconsumption:
if powered with +12V ~300mA, if powered from +5V ~250mA, less if used without LED backlight

The modules are distributed under the brand name fanwander."




MIDI-ITO

A simple module, which provides MIDI input, output and thru. The module is connected with a bus cable to the VMC.

Width: 6HP
Depth: 40mm




MIDI-3IT

A module with MIDI input and thru; the input can be routed to three different busses. So it is possible to control up to three VMCs or similar modules from one MIDI source.

Width: 6HP
Depth: 40mm




MIDI-OOO

A module with three separate MIDI out sockets, for the three possible busses of this system.

Width: 6HP
Depth: 40mm



MIDI-ITOs

Same as MIDI-ITO, but only with 3.5mm sockets. Due to the mountingposition of the multipin connector it is deeper than the other modules.

Width: 2HP
Depth: 45mm




MIDI-INV
A simple passive module, which converts from the official pin assignement according to MIDI specification, which is used by Korg, MakeNoise and the VMC-System, to the non-standard pin assignement used by Arturia and Novation.

Width: 2HP
Depth: 25mm
