MIDIFY yer VORTICES!!!


Who'd've thunk there'd be room in my back for _another_ knife...?   :(

This came from Kenton Electronics today, a world-renowned company 
specialising 
in MIDI retrofits of analogue synths etc.  I EMailed about getting a MIDI 
retrofit on the V. I _thought_ I was buying (sniff), and got this reply.  
The 
£-$ exchange rate is $1.65=£1 btw.  And you're probably VAT (Value Added 
Tax, 
ie sales tax) exempt outside the UK.

Enjoy...

                although we don't actually do an internal MIDI retro-fit
for the Vortex, it can be controlled using a KADI unit. This is an
external box (originally intended for drum machines) which converts MIDI
data to trigger signals.

        The MIDI data may be in the form of program change commands, or
note data and the trigger signal may be a positive or negative, level,
or pulse, the duration of which is user definable. With the addition of
a suitable lead, the device will be able to control all the inputs on
the Vortex. The full spec. is as follows...
