DOEPFER A-190-8 USB/MIDI to Sync

USB/Midi-to-Sync Interface

The main application of the module is the control of clocked A-100 modules like sequencers (A-155), sequencer controllers (A-154), trigger divider (A-160 or A-163), trigger sequencer (A-161) and similar units. It may be used also to reset or sync LFOs (e.g. A-145, A-147, A-143-4) or to trigger envelope generators (A-140, A-141, A-143-1, A-143-2) with a fixed clock rate.

MIDI input and an USB input but a simultaneous use isn't possible.
There are five clock outputs with different divisions:

96: 96 pulses per bar = 24ppq (no division)
32: 32 pulses per bar = 8ppq (division by 3)
16: 16 pulses per bar = 4ppq (division by 6)
8: 8 pulses per bar = 2ppq (division by 12)
1: generates a impulse at the beginning of a new bar (division by 96)
(ppq=pulses per quarter note)

The outputs Start and Stop generate impulses at each MIDI start and MIDI stop command. At a MIDI start command that follows a stop command the reset output will generate an impulse.

The Wait function stops the analogue clock while MIDI clock is running and will re-start it at the beginning of the next bar. This funtion can be activated with the button or a control pulse.
