About this listing
selling my Doepfer Darktime, proper analog step sequencer love this little synth, it's just not getting as much use as it should since i got some new gear!- 2x8 sequence setup, can run them parallel or chain them together for a full 16 step sequencer - quantizing, shuffle, clock divide - can be synced w/ internal clock, external CV, midi or USB - operable w/ 12V AC 400mA PSU (not included) some more info from detroit modular : for each step:- rotary control (same knob type as Dark Energy)- red LED- three-position switch On/Off/SkipOn = trigger signal is active for this stepOff = no trigger for this stepSkip = step is skippedthree-position switch Stop/Continue/JumpStop = sequence stops hereContinue = sequence continuesJump/Reset:If only one of the 16 toggle switches is in the Jump position a Reset is carried out (i.e. sequence jumps to stage 1)If two or more of the switches are in the Jump position the sequence jumps to the next step with the switch in the Jump position and then continues from this position (until another step with the switch in the Jump position is reached and then the same procedure is carried out again)several operating modes:1x16 (i.e. the two rows are daisy-chained)2x8 (i.e. both rows run in parallel)1-8 Combi (lower row set individual gate lenght of the upper row)several running directions:forwardbackwardrandomCV scaling: 1V/Octave standard (note: not suitable to control devices with Hz/V scale !)several voltage / tuning ranges: 1V, 2V, 5V (corresponding to 1/2/5 octaves)gate voltage 0/+5V (please refer to the remarks below concerning devices with S-Trigger or Korg MS10/MS20)for units manufactured later than early 2012 (from serial number 120240) the output voltage for Gate/Clock/Reset/Start-Stop can be set to +12V by means of an internal jumper (the corresponding interface boards are marked V2/2011 or V3/2012). The following document describes the modification procedure in detail: Dark_Time_12V_Gate.pdf.quantization on/off/custom scale (custom scale not yet available in the first firmware version)when quantization is "off" the resolution is still 10 bit (i.e. 1024 steps over the full rotating range of each potentiometer), from this the term "quantization off" is not fully correct, withquantization "on" the resolution is 13/25/61 steps for 1/2/5 octavestranspose via switch (-1/0/+1 octave), Midi/USB or external CV inputtiming control, selected by a three position switch:internal via built-in clock oscillator with frequency and pulsewidth controlsexternal via Midi/USBexternal via analog clock/start/stopanalog interface for CV/gate/clock/Start-Stop (inputs and outputs, 3.5 mm miniature jack sockets)Midi interfaceUSB interface (power supply via USB is not possible)
