Sound on sound march 2000 review of doepfer's mcv24 multi-channel midi-to-cv converter, by paul nagle.
Even the most die-hard analogue synth enthusiast must recognise the advantages to be gained by integrating their voltage-controlled gear into a MIDI environment. Paul Nagle tries out Doepfer's sophisticated solution to this problem.
Despite the growing army of 'virtual' analogue synthesizers, large numbers of classic analogue synths are still used on a daily basis and remain highly sought-after. This, coupled with a thriving new generation of analogue modulars, means that the demand for a 'one-box' solution to integrate them all into a MIDI environment has never been stronger. Doepfer's MCV24 is a well-specified MIDI-to-CV converter with 24 programmable outputs, clock and DIN Sync functions, and an extensive modulation matrix, along with built-in low frequency oscillators and envelopes. Before you start wondering just who needs to control 24 analogue synths, however, note that only four of the MCV24's outputs produce 'high-quality' control voltages for controlling note pitch; the rest are intended to carry trigger signals, modulation and envelope contours, or voltages derived from incoming MIDI controllers ...

Frostwave Analog create the tools that defined modern electronic music.
Frostwave build electronic music devices that utilise the same circuitry and designs of the classic analog synth gear that defined the sound of modern electronic music.
Everything you will see on this site is designed and built by electronics guru Paul Francis Perry. He and the rest of the Frostwave Team work from his home/workshop located in Melbourne Australia.
Midi-CV Converters: Prices for MIDI-CV, DCB, Wasp, Trigger converters.
In order to control pre-MIDI synthesisers from a modern MIDI instrument or sequencer, you need to change the digital MIDI messages into the kind of signals the pre-MIDI synth can understand.
Logic Audio Environments:
The Logic Audio Environment page is the most wonderful, the most incredible, the most amazing thing ever invented. It is a place to create Environment Pages ( I call them MIDI Music Models ).
The Environment can be used to create MIDI Models or Control Panels for Recording Studio Mixing Desks, Synthesiser Mixers, Studio Effects Units, Drum Machines. Any MIDI Device can be mapped within the Environment then be programmed from the Score Page, Event List, Hyper Editor, Arrange Window or half way down the road.

Because of several inquiries we consider manufacturing a very last edition of our former trigger sequencer Schaltwerk. Your binding order has to arrive not later than June 01, 2006. Provided that sufficient orders will arrive we start the definitely last production series during June 2006 ...
