Re: [analogue-sequencer] Trigger output

2012-05-11 by Eric

Hi Colin,
Ah, ok. I think I misinterpreted the drum-trigger interface as something 
different then the CVIO breakout box. Now I understand this is the same 
box. So for using "single, variable voltage pulses" one needs to do some 
soldering to make some kind of converter/merger..
Isn't it possible to map the velocity to the trig/gate outputs? What 
voltage does it give? But maybe there's no DAC for the trig/gate out??
Kind regards,
Eric
