|
|
Can anyone tell me if this is possible please?
I'm trying to synch my microkorg with my eurorack to use the arpeggiator, and unfortunately my racks' midi interface (A-190-2) doesn't receive midi clock. I can sync it using the gate out, but that relies on a constant stream of notes coming from the microkorg.
A workaround I've used with a DAW is to draw and loop automation to send pitch or mod data to mimic a sync signal (5ms pulse), and use the voltage created from the pitch / mod outputs on the interface.
Can the microkorg bpm sync an lfo with a square-sh or sharp rise waveform and transmit that as pitch or mod wheel midi? |

Hi,
Unfortunately not. The LFO can sync to the bpm, but modulation of the pitch is handled internally in the sound engine. So it does not generate a continuous stream of pitch bend MIDI messages to the engine or to the MIDI out interface...
Is it the original mK or is it a mKXL(+)? In the latter a possible workaround with some limitations is possible.

Thanks for the reply - original mK I'm afraid. I do have workarounds involving drum machines and external input > gate module but it's a bit fiddly and fragile. Oh well. |
