Re: EML 500 Problems

2007-02-27 by Robert

The sequencer in jack takes a stereo jack, tip (gate/trigger)and the
ring voltage.
Now the problem with the EML's is that the octave is not the standard
1 volt per octave but more like 1.2 volts (which actually makes more
sense since there are 12 notes in a western octave).
I've a few post above which address this problem if you are to use a
midi to cv (control voltage) convertor.
