Connections and integration into your setup
Power supply
You can use any ordinary 9 Volt DC powersupply to operate your controller. The connector should have
Plus on
it's center pin
and Ground - sometime labeled as 'Minus' - on the outside. The Synth Programmer has a
protection diode for not taking damage if the polarity of the power supply is wrong, it just won't work. The
current of the PSU should at least offer about 200 mA (=0.2 A). If it supplies more current (e.g. 500mA) this is fine
and won't cause problems.
Please do NEVER use a powersupply which has an 'AC'-Output
. AC means alternate current. AC-PSUs have
the letter combination AC/AC or a sinewave symbol besides the word 'output'.
Midi connections
The Stereoping Programmer has 3 Midi jacks which should be cabled like that:
•
MIDI 1 - OUT
-> MIDI IN of your Pulse
•
MIDI 1 - IN
-> MIDI OUT of the Pulse
•
MIDI 2 - IN
-> MIDI OUT of your Midi interface/sequencers/keyboards
Both jacks of Midi 1 connect the Programmer with your synth in a loop. This seems unconventional but it is
necessary: the Synth Programmer must hold the same patch data in it's memory as your Pulse. This data
exchange runs through
MIDI 1 IN
/
OUT
.
A Synthesizer would not make any sense if it could not receive midinotes, modulation wheel changes a.s.o.
These are coming into the programmer over the
MIDI 2 IN
jack from your keyboard/DAW/sequencer. They will
be merged with your parameter changes and sent together to the synthesizer.
