Introduction
1. Introduction
1.1. Preface
Doepfer thanks you!
First of all we would like to thank you for having purchased Doepfer Dark Link! We really appreciate your
choice and promise you an extraordinary support throughout, including useful information, easy service,
and innovative product development.
May your Dark Link be an important and useful tool for ages to come.
What's this?
Dark Link is an easy to use but pretty powerful USB/MIDI-to-CV/Gate-Interface. Monophonic Synthesizers
that are not equipped with a built in MIDI Interface can be easily controlled via MIDI resp. MIDI via USB.
Your synthesizer simply needs inputs for a pitch control voltage and a gate signal. Dark Link provides not
only a pitch control voltage but also three additional control voltages that are derived from pitch bender,
velocity and MIDI-controller data (e.g. modwheel) of your MIDI/USB keyboard. So it is most easy to hook
up a vintage synthesizer in your MIDI setup. Dark Link is housed in a compact and solid metal enclosure.
Power supply is an included 12-15 volt "wall wart".
R.t.f.m.!
We knew it: User manuals are your first and only choice in literature. Hey, that's great – we're talking the
same language here!
If you are doubting the entertaining qualities of this manual – how dare you! –, please bear in mind that its
thorough study will eventually turn out to be quite useful as it will highly increase the inspirational value of
your new MIDI-to-CV/Gate interface. So please do yourself - and us - a big favor: Read (and, if possible,
understand) this frigging manual! Thanks for your time, and bless you for your efforts!
In the first section you will find all info needed to successfully hook up Dark Link to your setup.
After that, you will find a brief overview of its functions. Experts may use this as a quickstart guide. You
should not skip the complete description of the entire "Functions" section in the next chapter, though – Dark
Link hides some interesting features under its hood. If sequencer technology –
especially the secrets of MIDI-to-CV/Gate conversion – are totally new to you, please refer to "Nuts and
Bolts of MIDI-to-CV/Gate conversion" later on in this manual.
Enough babble - here we go...
