The MCX16 is a MIDI-CV converter that is available assembled or as a DIY kit. It provides a total of 16 outputs – 8 gates & 8 CV’s .

The DIY kit assembly time is estimated at 3 to 3.5 hours. The kit is a mix of SMT and hole-mounted components.

Features/Specs:

• 16 channels, configured as 8CV, and 8 Gate, assignable CC/Note/Gate/Velocy/Mod,Bend, etc.
• 1 DIN Sync port.
• High quality converter.
• Designed primary for modular systems but controls any synthesiser
• Useful for many other applications, stage light, robotics, tempo controlled.
• Quick response times to CC changes.
• Schematics included.
• Accurate 12bit DAC for each CV channel, with internal precision reference.
• Gates generates 0 to +5V as standard, can be updated with a ULN2803 to control up to +50V.
• Gates can behave as programmable midi syncable clocking nets with adjustable rate.
• LED?€™s for active MIDI and DIN clock on display board.
• Low-power design, +/-12 to +/-16V.
• Physically small, requires very little real estate into any modular or mono syntheziser.
• Very easy user interface, no endless paging up and down in LCD menus.
• DIN sync, Start/Stop and Clock signals, invertable.
• DIN sync has selectable clock rates.
• Use any jacks size
• Can drive weird synths like EML (1,2V), Moog Source (0,98V), etc.
• Trimless design, physically small hardware.
• Very few components, only one +8,000V calibration to do.
• 4 DAC channels has zipper step smoothing on controller board, user defined RC rates by hardware.
• 4 System program setups available for instant recall.
• MCX16 is a universal converter, can run stand alone without any display and buttons.
