CV in controller for ARmkII A4mkII AH?

[sezare56]

can learn the range.

I guess you need to learn each time you change the light environment. Strombo in a club!

Hehe exactly

Actually what is what for the TRS for the control inputs are specified in the manuals in the Technical information. Not in the AR MKII manual though, where it seems i have missed to put it in … ooops… Will fix that. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Thanks @eangman I only checked the ARmkII manual, I didn’t think to check the AH manual

I just checked my bits and bobs box and found some resistive ribbons and a FSR, as well as a little Adafruit mic module and a couple of LDRs, more experiments to come

Keep up your cool controller work

[darenager]

Don’t fancy any soldering?

You’re welcome

ARmkII has this one cool trick!

Well 2 actually*, following on from my experiments in this thread I thought perhaps it would be handy to build a little simple LFO circuit, for connection to the control input, but then I though, hang on I could use one of the direct outs to see if it will work properly first. Well, it does! So you can use any of the separate outs as a mod source for any other track(s), or even itself, seems to work pretty well, you just need to learn the control input from the relevant output, which is as …

Just tried a ribbon controller using a resistive membrane sensor, pretty nice, can think of lots of nice musical uses for this!

[darenager]

Gonna solder these up next, and a little LDR probe.

'bout time Elektron got D-Beam technology

I think the correct groove approved 90’s vernacular would be:

“Yo E bust out the D, yeah boyeee, woop woop!”

Meanwhile…

The idea being it is small enough to sit on a pad or over a LED for a ghetto style LFO thingy.

Hey thank you @darenager!
Because of your experiment I crafted a very small joystick to use with my ARMKII
it was way easy
I feel like the exp learn feature of the cv inputs on the MKII’s isn’t really being talked about
its so easy to add any type of sensor to them this way.
