I recently found a j-47 key (with no powersupply or anything like that) but it seems to have all connections intact. I couldn't find any documentation for the unit anywhere on the net, but there are plenty of pictures of the unit, so I can only assume that it was a popular model. Ideally I would like to be able to have this key pass a Doepfer level gate voltage (to use as an mpc style "tapper" for one-shot synth noises with my a-100s...). Would it be as simple as hooking up a 5 volt battery to this the cross pins, and then taking the poled outputs into my synth? I am assuming a battery or powersupply would be hooked up to the two pins on the key swivel itself, and then spiltting out the current off the red and white poles to an amp or voltage control source.. or something like that. Anyone tried anything like this (I know, it must sound hairbrained, but I think it would be pretty fucking cool to be tapping out morse- code style adsr'd filter settings, no?). == Sixtoo (Robert Squire) Audio Boxcutter , Visual Butterknife. -- web: http://www.sixtoo.net email: sixtoo@sixtoo.net -- Vinyl Promos: Robert Squire 5581 St. Urbain St. Montreal, QC H2T2X2 Canada. == Management: Gabe Hilfer, NYC.
