DARK TIME
Preliminary

(click to enlarge)


Dark Time is an analog sequencer that is planned in the first place as an add-on for the Dark Energy. But it may be used even in combination with other Midi, USB or CV/Gate equipment too. As the unit is still in the development state (as of February 2010) all specifications, prices and release dates are still without any obligation ! As soon as more detailed information is available it will be published here.

Features overview

  • two rows with 8 controls each
  • for each step:
    • - rotary control (same knob type as Dark Energy)
    • - red LED
    • - three-position switch on/off/skip
      • on = trigger signal is active for this step
      • off = no trigger for this step
      • skip = step is skipped
    • - three-position switch stop/continue/reset
      • stop = sequence stops here
      • continue = sequence continues
      • reset = sequence jumps back to stage 1

  • several running directions:
    • forward
    • backward
    • random
  • several voltage / tuning ranges: 1V, 2V, 5V (corresponding to 1/2/5 octaves)
  • quantization on/off
  • transpose via switch (-1/0/+1 octave), Midi/UBS or external CV
  • timing control:
    • internal via built-in clock oscillator with frequency and pulsewidth controls
    • external via USB/Midi
    • external via analog clock/start/stop
  • interfaces for CV/gate/clock, Midi and USB
  • optically adapted to Dark Energy (same knobs, same depth and height, same wooden side plates and so on)
