ADDAC402 EXPANSION MIDI GUIDE
January.2017Revision.01
INTRODUCTION
ADDAC402B MIDI Expansion allows full I/O Midi control of ADDAC402 plus access to a powerfull midi inter-
face, with:
Midi Sync:
Allows the module to synchronize with any external MIDI device’s Clock, including transport messages like
play, stop and continue.
CV to MIDI:
5 CV inputs (Fills 1 to 4 and Assign) to MIDI Notes and/or CC messages, the Note and CC number can be
independently configured via the Configuration Menu.
These CV inputs can be sent on independent MIDI Channels, for ex: Fills 1 to 4 on MIDI Channel 1 and Assign
on MIDI Channel 2.
MIDI Controller:
All panel controls (9 knobs, 4 toggle switches and 11 push buttons) can be sent to MIDI Out as CC controls
making it work just like any standard MIDI controller. The individual CC numbers can be configured through
the Configuration Menu.
MIDI to Gate:
All 4 Gate outputs can be controlled/sequenced from an external MIDI device.
For ex: we can configure Gate 1 to be responsive to CC 1, Gate 2 to CC 2 and so on. Everytime CC 1 gets a
value of 127 Gate 1 will be turned ON, if it gets a 0 value Gate 1 will be turned OFF.
MIDI Control:
All panel controls (9 knobs, 4 toggle switches and 11 push buttons) can be controlled/sequenced from MIDI
CC controls. This allow full automation of the module via MIDI.
The individual CC numbers can be configured through the Configuration Menu and includes a midi learn
feature for easier configuration.
Also controllable via MIDI is the change of Presets and Modes.

MENU Description
MENU Operation
For any MIDI Configuration the user must get into the CONFIG Menu, this is done by pressing the MODE INFO /
CONFIG push button for 3 seconds, after this the screen will show the first Menu Page:
CONFIG + ASSIGNS:
In this page the user accesses several diferent settings of the 402 and can also Assign the Swing/Assign
input to any parameter.
MIDI GENERAL CONFIG:
This page features most general MIDI settings
MIDI IN CONFIG:
This pages features all settings related with incoming MIDI messages
MIDI OUT CONFIG:
This pages features all settings related with outgoing MIDI messages
Once in the first page the user can use the PRESET MENU / SCROLL Knob to scroll among the Menu options.
Pressing the MODE INFO / CONFIG Button will enter the selected secondary Menu page.
Pressing it once again will Exit the secondary Menu page back to the First page.
Once inside a secondary page the user can scroll its items with the PRESET MENU / SCROLL Knob.
To change a parameter the user can use the Skip Step 3 / MENU -- button to decrease the current value or
use the Skip Step 4 / MENU ++ button to increase the current value. It’s also possible to use the Steps 4 / Set
Value Knob for faster changes.
MIDI Learn:
While inside a secondary menu, the user can also press the Reset 4 / MIDI Learn push button and while
keeping it pressed send a CC message to the 402 MIDI IN. The module will then detect the message and set
the current selected value to the incoming CC number.

MIDI GENERAL CONFIGURATION
The General Configuration Menu page allows the User to configure:
REMOTE CONTROL
CV1 MIDI CH
CV2 MIDI CH
CV3 MIDI CH
CV4 MIDI CH
CV5 MIDI CH
CLOCK TYPE
CLOCK DIV
MIDI SOFT THRU
ON / OFF
OFF to 16
OFF to 16
OFF to 16
OFF to 16
OFF to 16
OFF / SLAVE
6 to 48
ON / OFF
MIDI SOFT THRU:
Allows any incoming message from MIDI IN to be routed to MIDI OUT, this is necessary if you’re daisy chain-
ing MIDI devices.
CLOCK TYPE:
Allows the module to operate from it’s Clock Input (OFF) or to Synchronize to an external MIDI device’s clock
(SLAVE).
CLOCK DIV:
This is an experimental feature not found in most MIDI devices, it defines the Incoming MIDI clock division.
As a standard MIDI clock comes as a flow of 24 messages every 1/4 note, this makes it sync with high
eficience. Changing this value most probably will result in unsynchronized events but can also be used to
divide the incoming BPM, if set to 12 it will multiply the incoming BPM by a factor of 2 and if set to 48 it
will divide the incoming BPM by a factor of 2, For ex: 120 BPM and a clock division of 12 will result in a 240
BPM, if the clock division is 48 then the effective BPM will be 60.
Any value in between will make it work in very unusual and very interesting ways.
REMOTE CONTROL:
This allows for transport messages to be received and respected by the 402.
For ex: if connected to a sequencer it will Play every time the sequencer is set on Play, Stop everytime the
sequencer is stopped and Continue (just like Play but the sequencer is not reset to Bar number 1) everytime
the sequencer resumes playing.
CV 1 to 4 MIDI CH:
This allows the user to set independent MIDI Channels for each of the CV to MIDI converters.

MIDI INPUT CONFIGURATION
The MIDI Input Menu page allows the User to configure:
MIDI CHANNEL:
The MIDI Channel which the 402 responds to.
MODE CHG CC:
The CC number that will make the 402 Change it’s working MODE,
the value will determine which mode it will change to.
PRESET CHG:
The CC number that will make the 402 Change it’s working Preset,
the value will determine which preset it will change to.
CLOCK CC:
Besides MIDI Sync and the Trigger Clock Input users can also
clock the 402 from a MIDI CC message, so that everytime this
message comes in the 402 advances to the next step. This
parameter defines the CC number that will trigger the clock.
PLAY/PAUSE CC:
Play and Pause actions can also be triggered from a CC message
SWING/ASSIGN CC:
The 402 Swing/Assign value can also be set from a CC message
that will take control over the panel’s Knob position, so that the
value is coming from the MIDI Input instead of the Panel control.
GATE OUT 1 to 4 CC and NOTE:
The 402 Gate outputs can also be controlled from MIDI, here you
can set individual CC or Note messages numbers that will change
the state of the Gate Outputs. Users can choose using a CC
number with value 127 for ON and value 0 for OFF or a Note
number so that Note On will make the Gate output go ON or a
Note Off to make the output go OFF.
This actions will work either if the 402 is in Play or Stop state.
MASTER RESET:
The CC number that will make the 402 reset all it’s voices to their
sequences Step 1.
STEPS CC - 1 to 4:
The CC numbers that will control the 402’s Steps values for all 4
voices.
FILLS CC - 1 to 4:
The CC numbers that will control the 402’s Fills values for all 4
voices.
