The PF-15 / PF-10 retrofit kit has been re-designed and is now smaller, easier to fit and allows the MIDI channel
number to be stored in memory (not available on the previous design). Optionally a MIDI IN socket can be fitted,
however this is exclusively for merging the incoming data with the data generated by the PF-15 into the MIDI output.

This new product is intended for anyone wanting to build their own custom controller or build projects where
they need to turn several control voltages into MIDI data.
It has 16 analogue inputs (0 - 5V) and any MIDI data can be generated on any MIDI channel from any input,
including sysex and NRPN messages.
The unit can be programmed using our free PC or MAC editor to send the data you want from any input.
The unit runs from a standard 9 volt power supply (or can be supplied to run from 6V by special request).
The unit is effectively one of our MIDI controllers but without the sliders knobs or buttons while retaining the
highly flexible operating system for which our controllers are renowned.
Ideal for schools, colleges, research establishments, animatronics, automation etc.
Price is £ 50.00 (ex VAT), £ 58.75 (inc VAT) with discounts available for quantity purchase

NEW PRODUCT AVAILABLE NOW
We have redesigned the TR-808 retrofit kit to make it smaller, easier to fit, and incorporating a new feature.
The new kit has all the functionality of the old kit which is:
Bi-directional (MIDI In and Out) plus Thru socket
Full Velocity control of sounds from MIDI In (or normal / accent mode can be selected if required)
Sounds can be mapped to whichever MIDI notes you want
MIDI Clock In and Out
Any MIDI channel can be selected
The new feature is:
Auto clock detect. The clock switch fitted to earlier units to select internal or MIDI clock has been removed.
The new kit will ignore internal clock if already playing from MIDI, or ignore MIDI clock if already playing
from internal.

Intended for live use mainly. This product will take a MIDI input on a single MIDI channel and can split it into several
zones and then re-output to a selected MIDI output port.
Each zone can perform multiple transformations on the data, for example changing the MIDI channel, transposition, port selection
etc...
There can be 128 setups stored for recall from a single program change message. When a program change message is received,
the appropriate setup is recalled, the selected zones are established and any pre-selected program changes will be output
on the selected MIDI channels (including bank switching), together with controller information (such as MIDI volume) for
setting the performance parameters. Program 'maps' can also be defined to recall
'scenes' or 'songs' - so you can easily change your running order for a concert
or show.
So a single program change received from your master keyboard can be used to re-program your entire rig - send different
program change messages to each synth, setup zones with transformations, and send initial data to pre-set volumes and
other controllers.

MidiStream is aimed at any MIDI performer who wants to be free of their
MIDI cable, be they a keyboard player, wind controller player or any
other portable instrument. MidiStream can also be used in conjunction with a
MIDI controller such as the Control Freak, to adjust levels on a MIDI
controlled mixing desk (eg 01X) from anywhere in an auditorium.
MidiStream is a diversity system (dual receiver) and has been designed specifically to
address the problems unique to MIDI data transfer, especially to not
leave notes stuck on should the transmission link be interrupted for any
reason.
MidiStream transmits all MIDI data, including SysEx,
MIDI clock and MIDI timecode. Licence exempt.
Units are sold as a pair (transmitter & receiver).
More
information
This product is aimed mainly at keyboard players working in an orchestra
pit who need an indication of the position of their volume pedal.
Typically the unit will display the value of MIDI volume (CC#7) on
channel 1, but can be set to display any controller on any MIDI channel
by using the built-in learn feature.
The selected level is displayed
both numerically and on a 20 segment multi-colour bargraph. The numeric readout
can be set to display 0-127 or 0-20 as required.
