Message: [QUOTE="Queen, post: 88267, member: 27"] A compact MIDI-to-CV box just got a serious glow-up with synth-friendly tricks packed into a tiny footprint. Kenton USB Solo Mk2 core rundown [LIST] [*]Kenton's USB Solo Mk2 converts MIDI to CV at £199.80. [*]Five-pin DIN sockets handle MIDI In and Thru. [*]Thru output optionally pushes Sync24 for vintage Roland gear. [*]USB and DIN connections transmit MIDI simultaneously. [/LIST] CV, gate, and Aux outputs [LIST] [*]Dedicated CV and gate outputs use 3.5mm TRS jacks. [*]Three assignable Aux outputs share that 16-bit DAC quality. [*]Any Aux connection can spit out an analogue clock signal. [*]Aux 1 also transmits clock start and stop messages. [/LIST] Onboard modulation goodies [LIST] [*]A built-in LFO modulates CV or Aux 1 by default. [*]Mod wheel messages trigger vibrato through the CV output. [*]Its ADSR envelope generator routes to any Aux output. [*]Envelope stages respond to MIDI CC control changes. [/LIST] USB MIDI interface modes [LIST] [*]Standard mode converts USB or DIN input into CV. [*]Interface mode routes USB data out through DIN Thru. [*]DIN MIDI In data gets forwarded to USB in that mode. [*]Both modes keep the conversion options super flexible. [/LIST] Upgrades inherited from Pro Solo Mk3 [LIST] [*]Aux 2 and Aux 3 are continuously variable analogue outputs. [*]Adjustable slew rate smooths out jumpy controller signals. [*]Dual clock dividers run simultaneously across different outputs. [*]Drum Trigger mode fires velocity-variable pulses per note. [/LIST] Extra quality-of-life perks [LIST] [*]32 program memories store and recall user presets. [*]MIDI Program Changes can pull up saved presets remotely. [*]Pitchbend range stretches to 48 semitones in each direction. [*]A 32-bit ARM processor powers everything under the hood. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
