WTB Doepfer Drehbank.

WTB Doepfer Drehbank.

I know they're old and kind of limited but the simplicity and sheer number of knobs appeals to me.

BTW I see the 8 CV inputs are factory configured. Anybody know how easy it is to make them all just CV inputs, no foot controllers etc?

I have a Drehbank. Judging by the user manual, the only difference is that the foot controller inputs provide +5V on the Ring of the TRS socket. The modification probably just severs this connection. It would also be possible to build a custom cable that would have no connection on for the Ring on the 1/4" TRS end, and a regular TS plug on the other end. This would provide ground and a 0 to +5V return signal from your modular. Check with Dieter to make sure there isn't some impedance matching that needs to be accounted for.

As for selling mine.... I don't really like to ever sell any thing ever. Like, never. That said, I don't really use it. I keep it because one day I will want to use it, it's the only CV to Midi converter I have. I'll think about it.

Thanks for the info. Yeh let me know if you would sell yours. There are a few CV-MIDI converters around but the extra integration and knobs of the Doepfer definitely solves a few problems. I'm guessing we might see something similar again released in the coming years ... but I want it now goddamn it!
