Midi to CV - Going round in circles

[A30N]

Hi,

Im really stuck in terms of a midi cv converter.

What do you guys recommend is a good diy one. I dont have a pic programmer and cant make pcb's yet.


Thanks,
Jamie

Been looking @ these btw:

both expensive though...

The MCV-628 works great!!!

I have an unused MCV-628 PCB lying around here somewhere..
I recently bought another midi/cv so I don't need this one.
Send me a messege if you're interested. /L

Hello !

I built the midibox CV ... andit is great !!!
8CVs / 10 Gates / Synchro Start/Stop / Clock output etc etc
http://www.ucapps.de/

There is alos this cheap version that works very well http://www.acoupel.com/
(click on the midi/CV gate menu)
There is simple one ( 2CVs+ gate + rigger) and a bigger one ( 4CVs etc)

I've always been tempted to build the Midibox CV, but it all seems very confusing!

The building is really easy. I replaced the DAC0831 by the cheaper DAC0832,
and the expensive/hard to find REF01 by a circuit based on a TL431.

I also builded the MIDIbox CV, first the version with discrete DACs (R2R ladder),
but the precision is not very good, especially for V/Hz. Recently I build the MAX525
one, and is great, but a lot more expensive than the MCV-628.
Both of them do their job, I will use the MCV-628 for my SoundLab, and the MIDIbox CV
for my modular.

Thanks for your help, i have decided to go for a pre built midi cv so i can give all my time and effort to the main synth
