Expert Sleepers - ES-6 Mk3
- Order number: 220630
- Depth: 50
Expert Sleepers ES-6 converts control voltages into digital, optical signals in lightpipe format.
The mk3 version incorporates jumpers on the PCB that allow DC coupling to be enabled or disabled for each stereo pair of inputs, as well as enhanced audio performance.
Attention: An ES-3 is necessary for using the ES-6!
The ES-6 can convert up to eight control voltages with a range of ±10 V into digital signals that are emitted by an optical output. The analog / digital converter uses a resolution of 24 Bit and 103 dB SNR. It can also be used to expand the amount of inputs of an ES-8.
The module itself offers six input sockets, two more can be provided by attaching an ES-7 expander.
This module bridges the gap between modulars and DAWs. With an ES-6 (or ES-8) you can have fully bidirectional, high resolution CV-communication between Modular Synths and Computers. The possible applications are immense: Controlling VST Plugins with CVs, fully integrating Modular Soft Synths, complex processing loops or combining the power of MAX/MSP and a Modular System.
Attention:
The ES-6 derives its clock from an ES-3's lightpipe input or ES-8's internal clock, i.e. an ES-3 or ES-8 is necessary for using the ES-6!

Andrew Ostler (aka Oz) has gained a well-earned reputation not only with his do-it-all Disting module, but by providing a range of CV and audio signal converters that allow computers talk fluently to modulars, and vice versa.
