Description

The MIDVertor E1 is an E1 series extension module, which adds Digital inputs and ouputs.
Currently able to connect up to 7 ConVertor E1's and expand their communication beyond the CV controls. Adding sustain pedal, external communication via MIDI input, MIDI merging and many planned features for future expandability.

The E1 modules

Connected via 4-pin bi-directional digital connection, those two Eurorack modules make up a new way of playing and controlling your synthesizers. Play a monophonic audio source into the audio input and get 1V/octave pitch CV, ENV CV, and Gate CV outputs. You  can also modulate the frequancy  via  external 1V/octave pitch input into the FM IN. External standard sustain pedal can freeze pitch and ENV of MIDI as well as internal synth engine. Internal DCO can work in either Audio Controlled Oscillator mode  or in VCO mode decoupling its pitch from the tracking detection, when the preamp stays indipendent. Connect up to 7 units to add voices to the same MIDI channels. Audio to MIDI conversion is done by an ultra-fast custom firmware.

Play any monophonic instrument or voice and get 1V/oct CV, ENV CV, Gate CV signals. MIDI interpretation as well as its own synthesizer outputs extracted from your audio source.

Easily add more ConVertor E1 modules for a polyphonic group of mono modules.

With the MIDVertor E1, the ConVertor E1 can now control external MIDI synths, but with upcoming update, be able to receive MIDI and play like one

Pressing down a connected sustain pedal will not only freeze MIDI notes, but also freezes the pitch and ENV synth engine of the ConVertor E1

The DuoPack is based on 3 ARM micro-processors running custom firmwares, communicating in real time consuming around 150 mA
Current MIDVertor firmware 0.9 does not (yet) include visible features like external MIDI input, ARP and other  planned features.  Purchasing the DuoPack E1 does however, includes a lifetime free firmware updates.

Product description:

United by our 4-pin digital connection, those two Eurorack modules make up the ultimate hybrid controlled, synth channel. Convert audio to PITCH, ENV & GATE CV's. Control its oscillator with external 1V/octave pitch input. Connect a standard TS Sustain pedal to freeze its pitch & ENV. Internal DCO can work as Audio Controlled Oscillator / VCO mode. Connect any number up to 7 ConVertor E1s to unify them in polyphonic operation by adding MIDVertor E1 expander module (MIDI 2.0 ready), audio to MIDI conversion, via ultra-fast custom firmware. compression and optional full synth voice with presets. Switchable to work in VCO mode in which the internal oscillator will be controlled only with CV control (future planned MIDI control), while preamp stays independent with the ENV extraction.
