Dark Link uses a very simple user-interface. To be exactly, it is not much more than the Learn button and

one additional knob. The learn-button is used to configurate Dark Link and "tell" it, in which manner it has to

transform incomming MIDI data into analogue control voltages and the gate signal.

The GLIDE knob controls the – you guessed it – the glide time of Dark Link's internal glide function.

As a hidden feature, you will also find a simple but useful arpeggiator which is also accessed by the learn-

button. It's use is pretty simple, even without a display.

Dark Link receives MIDI data via it's USB port or the MIDI-IN DIN-socket. Please do not use both

simultanously.

The five 1/8" mini sockets provide the controlvoltages, generated by Dark Link.
