Re: Beginners question: automate BCR control of (old) external sound modules

2012-12-10 by sghookings@tiscali.co.uk

I do this via a microprocessor.

It sits in the middle of the synth/BCR and add the necessary merging/midi feedback.

I am not sure of any other way of doing this ... but if there is I am all ears :-)

I'm having several legacy modules like the Proteus-1 (with orchestral expansion), a MKS-20, a DM5 drum module and a General Music RealExpander. All these modules have tiny vague LCD-screens and are hard to control manually especially when I'm working on my "music"desk, because they are a kind of tuck away in my setup to preserve working space. Thanks for any suggestion, help or pointing to previous discussions about this subject!
