Elektron Musical Instruments

Finally got a controller coming up for the mono! It's a kenton control
freak studio thingy with 16 faders in a heavy old school metal box.
Also got two interesting foot pedal input jacks. Happens to be the same
as analogue CV inputs with a 5V feed. Great! Soldering two TSR jacks to
each of the pots in any plain joystick or other potentiometer device
works just as well as doing it in a guitar pedal. Gaffertape the 'stick
to the sfx and off it goes! :)

Seems to be standard the same 0-5V inputs on the faders, makes it easy
to add more of those funky input devices. Hope to get at least one
penny&giles ultra smooth dj-crossfader connected. Midi output from the
live mixer would be perfect! 


PS: sync problems; be sure to use a star pattern on the connections.
Dear say that most sync problems are probably due to long daisy
chaining through slow devices and long cables. Get a midi thru unit to
feed all sensitive devices directly. Same goes with the din sync if you
chain sync24 boxes. Splicing two or three cables to make a dumb
splitter usually works fine if you need to. Percussive attacks need
precise timing, synths with attack in the envelope less so. 


Cheers,
