Re: CV/gate quandary...

2010-07-19 by robotchas

I'd like to vote *against* having "1 or 2 pairs of CV/Gate outs & 2 CV ins" in 
addition to the breakout cable.

I think the breakout cable is a good solution. I don't see any reason why people 
not using CV at all should have to pay extra for CV connectors they're not going 
to use, just because "moderate" CV users don't want to pay for a breakout cable. 
If you want CV, buy a breakout cable - is one really so expensive that it 
justifies putting extra CV jacks on every unit? Especially since the number of 
connectors considered "moderate" seems to be growing - once you have six 
connectors (2 pairs out and 1 pair in), can you really claim that you don't need 
a breakout cable?

I don't actually agree that CV is the future. The future is likely to be OSC 
running much faster than MIDI, or something very similar. That's assuming 
there's even any hardware in the future, but that's another debate.
