Re: [200e] Microtonality and the 200e

2006-10-09 by Richard Lainhart

Unfortunately, I haven't yet used the Continuum with a 200e, so I 
can't speak from direct experience.

The Voltage Converter isn't actually available yet, but it should be 
possible to patch its outputs directly into a 200e inputs, or any CV 
analog modular synth, with the appropriate adaptor cable. The CVC 
will output four separate control voltages based on horizontal motion 
on the Continuum, which you would commonly use for oscillator pitch 
control, but you'll also get four individual CVs for front-to-back 
motion (which you could apply to filters, FM modulation amount, or 
any other CV parameter of course) and pressure, which could be 
applied to amplitude control, for example. You also get 4 individual 
trigger/gate outputs.

Without the CVC, you could use the direct MIDI out from the Continuum 
into the MIDI module, but I don't know if you'd get the same 
precision and flexibility that you're supposed to get from the CVC.
