Kenton Pro Solo Mk3 MIDI to CV Converter

The Kenton Pro Solo Mk3 MIDI to CV Converter features a number of improvements over its predecessor; including 3 continuously variable auxiliary outputs, a built-in ADSR envelope generator, the ability to smooth out steppy MIDI CCs and more.

The Pro Solo mk3 is highly configurable and is the ideal converter for anyone looking to incorporate an analogue synthesizer, vintage or otherwise, into their MIDI setup. The CV output can operate at 1V/Oct, Hz/Volt or 1.2V/Oct. The scaling and tuning are adjustable, to accommodate any unruly synths. The Gate output can work at several different voltage levels, and can also be set to work a S-trig instead.

The three continuously variable auxiliary outputs are presented on 3.5 mm jack sockets; and can be configured to respond to MIDI CCs, velocity, aftertouch, clock and more. In addition to this, the MIDI OUT port can be switched to output Sync24, so your vintage Roland equipment can join in as well.

FEATURES:

• Power: 9 V DC (regulated or unregulated)
• Dimensions: 140 x 87 x 45 mm
• Weight: 210 g
• MIDI: In, Thru (selectable)
• Analogue Outputs: CV on 3.5 mm jack (V/oct or Hz/V)
• Gate on 3.5 mm jack (Gate or S-trig)
• Aux 1, 2 & 3 on 3.5 mm jack
• Sync 24 Output: MIDI Thru socket switchable to work as Sync 24 output instead, with variable CPQN ratio
• Designed to control all types of mono-synth
• Super-fast response time
• Famous Kenton build quality
• Rugged brushed aluminum case
• Transpose (coarse tune) – up & down 12 semitones

• Programmable Gate V-trig (up to 15v) or S-trig (with or without pull-up)
• Multiple and single trigger modes
• Portamento Controller
• Three programmable Aux variable analogue outputs, controllable by any MIDI controller
• The Aux outputs now have adjustable slew rate (rise/fall time) to enable you to smooth out any controller jumps
• Built-in ADSR envelope generator (the controls for which can be assigned to MIDI CCs)
• Drum Trigger mode – Aux outputs can be set to produce a velocity-variable trigger pulse for drum synths, each with its own dedicated trigger note
• Dual clock dividers, which can be used simultaneously on different outputs, including the DIN socket when not used as MIDI out
• Variable gate-off time for re-trigger (multiple trigger)
• 32 program memories which can store and recall setups
• MIDI Program Changes can be used to recall setups
• Pre-loaded setups for many of the most popular synths
• Pitchbend range increased to 48 notes up & down
• Flash upgradable using SysEx when updates become available
• 32 bit ARM processor
