RS-140 CV-MIDI Converter Analogue Systems Eurorack

Control Voltage to MIDI Converter

The RS-140 converts MIDI messages into control voltages and due its numerous analog outouts it gives you plenty of possibilities to control your modular system with MIDI. Besides the usual CV and gate outputs if has in addition flexible controller outputs and it´s big backlit display and four function buttons make it easy to use.

technical details
In the CV menu you can set the voltage characteristic of the CV outputs (either 1V/octave or 1.02V/oct as the Minimoog had), the note range of the pithcbend wheel and the modulation depth of the internal LFO. This LFO can be synchronized to MIDI Clock, has several wave forms and MIDI-controlled level. Both CV outputs carry the same signal and they are active buffered.

Each trigger socket can output a gate, a trigger or a S-trigger (for old Moogs), either as multi trigger or single trigger. Alternatively you can output the MIDI clock that´s rate can be divided down in 9 settings.

Controller: each controller output can be assigne to one of 128 controlChage commands, the pitch bend wheel, velocity or aftertouch (plus the internal LFO for controller output 1). Besides that you can set one of four output voltage ranges (0 bis +5V; -5V bis 0V; -2,5V bis 2,5V und -5V bis +5V).

All settings can be saved in the non-volatile memory and you have 64 memory slots. Each of them can be recalled by ControlChange messages.

Needs and additional +5V voltage to operate.

misc
IMPORTANT:

Because of the different position of the mounting holes, there will be a gap of 0.5HP (= 2,5 mm) when mounting an Analogue Systems module by the side of an Eurorack module. Take this into consideration when planning your system. Gaps can be covered with 1.5HP wide blank panels by Doepfer.
Analogue Systems modules have a power cable with a different connector so an adaptor cable is needed for the use in a classic Eurorack case. The correct adaptor power cable for the RS-130 can be found here.
suitable 5V adaptors are available by Doepfer and Make Noise.
