• Octave
– MIDI controller # 0
– Value range: 0 - 6
(The pattern will be transposed up to 7 octaves, until it starts again with note „one".)
Since Dark Link's note range covers a maximum of 5 octaves, higher notes will be ignored and
produce „pauses" within the pattern. This effect can be used in a creative way to create musical
phrases.
Example: With the setting „octave 1", the played chord A3-C4-F4-G4 will produce exactly the same
pattern. Using „octave 2" instead results in the pattern A3, C4, F4, G4, A4, F5, G5 and so on.
(10) MIDI controller for CV4
If Dark Link receives a MIDI controller message (except bank controller # 0 and # 32) while in „learn mode",
the controller number of this message will define the controller number for CV4, for instance, the CV4
output of Dark Link will correspond to this controller number from now on. The controller message must be
sent on Dark Link's MIDI channel (see section „MIDI channel / Learn mode" on page 17).
Controller # 0 and # 32 (Bank Change) will be ignored and cannot be „learned".
Whenever Dark Link receives one of the MIDI messages listed in the table above, the parameter in questi-
on will be changed and Dark Link will return to normal play mode, i.e. the LED will stop flashing. Make sure
that no accidental MIDI messages appear while in learn mode (e.g. from a sequencer) as you alter the set-
tings of Dark Link by such MIDI messages. All parameter changes made while in learn mode are stored in
Dark Link´s non-volatile parameter memory. When Dark Link is turned on next time, the parameter settings
will be loaded from this memory.
3.5. The GLIDE control
instruments will also benefit from Dark Link's glide function.
Dark Link´s GLIDE knob sets the time that it takes a note to slide up or down to the pitch of the note played
subsequently. Simply turn the knob to the desired value to enable Dark Links glide function. The glide
function affects CV1.
3.6. Resetting Dark Link
In order to return to the factory settings of all parameters, you have to reset the device. This might be useful
if, for instance, you do not remember the last parameter settings (e.g. MIDI channel, reference note, con-
troller # for CV4, key assign mode) or if they are out of alignment. If your Dark Link seems to behave in
strange ways and you do not know how to solve the problem, resetting the device may help as the values
of all parameters will be restored after the reset.
Dark link
A popular effect – or rather playing technique – is letting one note's pitch
slide gradually to the pitch of the note played next. You get this effect (on a
suitably equipped synthesizer) when hitting a new key before releasing the
preceding one (i. e. legato playing). This function is also part of Dark Link.
Synthesizers that do not feature this function can now easily be tricked into
doing it without any further modifications necessary. Cool stuff, eh?
Unfortunately, some vintage synthesizers lose their built-in glide function
when controlled by external CV/gate signals (e.g. Moog Prodigy). These
