1.1.2.2. MIDI devices

Lots of mid-vintage devices have MIDI jacks but don’t have CV/Gate connectors or USB

ports. KeyStep can plug directly into them and also serve as a USB MIDI converter.

1.1.2.3. Clock sources/destinations

The Clock input and output connectors allow KeyStep to synchronize with lots of different

clock types: a single pulse per step, two pulses per step, 24 pulses per quarter note (ppqn),

and 48 ppqn. Between these four options you are ready to connect with almost any

imaginable music technology.

See

section 6.2.2 [p.39]

for specific information about what cables to use for the various sync

connections and formats.

1.1.3. …with an iPad®

Add a camera connection kit and KeyStep becomes the perfect companion for an iPad. This

enables it to be used as a controller for Arturia’s iMini, iSem or iProphet applications, for

example.

If you have an iPad but you don’t already own those virtual instruments, please take a look

at them on our website! They are very affordable, and live up to Arturia’s reputation for

modeling the sound of analog synthesizers with warmth and precision.
