Subject: CV/Gate
Original Message Date: 11-Apr-98 @ 10:59 PM - CV/Gate
I don't understand CV/Gate. What can you do with it? I have been offered a great deal on a Roland SH-2 and it sounds super fat, but I only want it if i can sequence the damned thing externally. If you get a MIDI-CV converter, what is the level of compatibility? (i know different manufacturers used different CV/gate standards...) Will I actually be able to sequence the thing from a MIDI sequencer with this converter, or will that just automate stuff like filter sweeps? Thanks a lot...

Doesn't seem these have the same features as the Kenton, but...
There's also Encore, but I think they're more expensive:

I have the Kenton Pro-2000, and I like it just fine. It runs
my Mini and my MG-1.
Good luck!

the encore expressionist is a fine machine, and is cheaper (i believe) than
the feature-comparable kenton pro4.
the encore's firmware is easily upgraded via midi; don't know about kenton.
encore's tony karavidas is easily accessible re: new concepts for upgrades.
(and he's a nice guy and a brand new daddy!)
and for serge owners: sound transform systems has a mod involving installing
the serge power ground directly to the expressionist; it's got something to
do with grounding the serge to the digitalia in the
expressionist. perhaps it eliminates most if not all potential noise/stepping
problems associated with midi/cv machines. check sts for details.
i upgraded from pro2 to expressionist and have been, obviously, quite pleased.
highly recommended...about $600 for 8 channels cv/gate, 3 global lfo's, poly
cv mode (which i haven't used yet), etc.
