hello could you please tell me more information on the +5v to -5v inverter you made? i am doing this mod on a roland rhythm tr77. any information would be greatly appreciated!
That Ace Tone totally rocks now! Daft question, but does each sound of the Ace Tone trigger as it's programmed by the DX? Or, are the Ace Tone's preset rhythms the only thing controlled timing-wise via MIDI by the DX?
The MIDI trigger board is from highly liquid (easy Google find). He makes PIC-based MIDI boards for Casios and Yamaha Portasounds et al. This one in particular was designed to trigger the Atari 2600 Video Computer System. You can get, I think, 12 direct triggers out of it, but I only used 9-10 of them. They run about USD$45.
I can't tell you anything about the CR's as I don't know how they are triggered. I always thought that they had 808-like voice circuits (twin-T oscillators + op amp)?
seriously.. if you're out there, i want to do this to my tr 77 , even if it's just clock in .

You asked, "does each sound of the Ace Tone trigger as it's programmed by the DX"
I think that was the whole point of this project.

Do you think the Moog Cookbook uses one of these?

I got the FR off ebay for not too much.
MIDI board is available online at Highly Liquid.
the interface circuitry is up to you, though!

Sounds a lot like the CR-78. Which MIDI board is that? Do you think it would also work on a CR-68 or 78?
