Vermona - qMI 2 (Quad MIDI Interface)
- Order number: 120639
- Depth: 25
Vermona's qMI 2 module is a very flexible yet affordable MIDI/CV interface which can be up to four voice polyphonic. You can use it as four independent interfaces or in a mixed mode with simultaneous monophonic and polyphonic modes. Also it has an integrated MIDI to clock converter on three clock outputs with individually adjustable diviisors.
Each of the "output channels" has a CV output with 1V/octave, a gate output and two further control voltage outputs for MIDI controllers like modulation wheel and pitch bend wheel. The output channels can be combined arbitrarily with each other or used totally independent on different MIDI channels. Combined output channels can be unisono, monophonic with rotating voice assignation or polyphonic.
There are three clock divider outputs (A, B and C) converting incoming MIDI-Clock signals to analog gate voltages.
The clock divisor can be set individually per output - select between divisors 1/4, 1/8, 1/16 or 1/8 triplet. The clock can be doubled globally as well.
A reset output allows e.g for keeping step sequencers (with an according reset input) by MIDI start/stop commands in sync.
An important part of the concept is the simple use of all parameters without a display and complicated menu structures.
Voltage levels:
- pitch-CV: 1V/octave
- Gate voltages: 10V
- CV1, CV2: 0-5V (or -2,5V..+2,5V with pitch bend)
- legato function switchable per output channel
- clock outputs: +10V:
- RESET output: 10V at MIDI Stop, 0V at MIDI Start or Continue
