CONTROL USING A MIDI TO CV CONVERTER NOT POSSIBLE FOR THESE
OSCAR (WE CAN DO AN INTERNAL MIDI RETRO-FIT TO THIS THOUGH)
THE FOLLOWING POLY-SYNTHS HAVE CV & GATE SOCKETS AND THUS CAN BE CONTROLLED USING THE PRO-2 - NOTE HOWEVER THIS
CONTROLS ONLY ONE VOICE OF THE SYNTH - BUT SEE NOTE #8

NOTES -
1) The Cinch-Jones S-Trig connector commonly fitted to MOOG synths, has two flat blades - the narrow blade connects to the tip
of a 3.5mm jack plug and the fatter blade connects to the body.
2) The connection info refers to channel A, but this could equally well be channel B etc. If you are going to use channel B of the
converter, you would be using the gate, s-trig, aux 1 & aux 2 outputs (as required) of that channel also.
3) All the outputs of the PRO-2 (except the SYNC 24 and MIDI thru) are on 3.5mm jack sockets.
4) Some of the control inputs on synths are mutually exclusive, ie. you wouldn't use the EXT CLK IN of the SH-101 at the same time as
the CV & GATE inputs.
5) References to FILTER control, mean control of the filter cutoff frequency - sometimes also called filter sweep or VCF frequency
control (VCF means voltage controlled filter).
6) We can fit CV, GATE and FILTER control sockets to most monophonic synths if they do not have them already - cost »37.60 (»32.00
plus VAT) in most cases
7) A stereo jack plug has the following connections, tip - ring - and body - in that order. To connect to the ring of the stereo jack
involves connecting the body of the 1/4" stereo jack to the body of the 3.5mm jack - and connecting the ring connection of the
1/4" stereo jack to the tip of the 3.5mm jack.
8) The PRO-2 (or indeed any MIDI to CV converter) is not generally the appropriate solution for the control of Polyphonic synths.
Although a few early poly-synths do have CV & GATE inputs fitted, this only enables you to use one of the voices, so you effectively
get a monophonic synth when using CV & GATE. The way to control poly-synths using MIDI is to get an internal retro-fit, which of
course KENTON can supply and fit for you.
