Doepfer MCV24 Midi CV/Gate/Sync Interface (device no longer available) - Manual (Page 7)

MIDI CHANNEL
The MIDI CHANNEL pages allows the MIDI channel to be assigned to control a particular output
CV. Any channel between 1 and 16 can be selected here. In the example shown, output CV number 1 is
being controlled by MIDI channel 1.
MODE
Mode is the keying priority for the selected output, the options are:-
High Note When played legato or polyphonically, the highest (top) note will be used
High & Follow Same as High Note mode, except the highest note will retrigger when played legato
or polyphonically if a higher note is released with another note held down.
Low Note If played legato or polyphonically, the lowest (bottom) note will be used
Low & Follow Same as Low Note mode, except the lowest note will retrigger when played legato
or polyphonically if a lower note is released with another note held down.
Last Note However played, whatever the last note played, will be used
---------- Reserved for future expansion
Poly 1 Allows multiple CV outputs to be set to the same MIDI channel and played
polyphonically.
Poly 1 & Priority As Poly 1 except priority given to note
Poly 2
Same as Poly 1, except with a different key reassignment system.
Poly 2 & Priority same as Poly 2, except priority given to note.
BASE NOTE
The Base Note is the lowest note that can be played from the keyboard. This is actually setting the note
that is assigned to a CV output of 0V. Ideally, this is the lowest C on the controlling keyboard, any other note
will transpose the CV output. Note the use of German musical terminology, where B is shown as H, the upper
case letters are negative values (C1 for example is C-1), and with no number, indicates the normal bottom
note of a 5 octave keyboard (C = C0 which is MIDI note 36 - the note that a General MIDI Drum kit Bass
Drum is on). Because it is the base note that is being changed, it may appear that the value knob increments
the pitch the wrong way - as you turn the control clockwise and the base note goes up - the pitch falls. This is
correct and just about logical if you give it some thought - which we will not go into here.
