The cover of the instrument will not be markedly damaged during the installation. The physical appearance of

the vintage instrument remains nearly the same as before the installation. If necessary, the interface can be

simply removed and the instrument restored back to original appearance.

All original circuits of the Vermona Synthesizer remain without any modification. The instrument can be used

the same way as before the retrofitting.

MIDI DIN SOCKETS INSTALLATION

MIDI DIN SOCKETS INSTALLATIONMIDI DIN SOCKETS INSTALLATION

MIDI DIN SOCKETS INSTALLATION

The interface has both MIDI input and output. However, only MIDI input is necessary for basic operation of the

interface (i.e controlling the instrument by MIDI commands). The MIDI THRU/OUT output socket need not to be

installed (see chapter 3.1) if you don’t require transfer of MIDI data to another MIDI devices (THRU function) or

reverse communication of the interface with MIDI host system (OUT function). Nevertheless, having both MIDI

input and output is more convenient for an easy integration in a more advanced MIDI system.

There are more possible ways to install the MIDI socket(s) if you do not want to mechanically damage the

panels of the instrument by drilling (see chapter 3.1).

Recommended method of the MIDI sockets montage is described below.

a) Pull flat connectors of MIDI cables through the 16 mm holes in the panel from outer side and insert the DIN

sockets of the cables into the holes (fig. 2.2.3). Both MIDI cables are identical and can be swapped.

b) Fix the DIN sockets to the panel using four screws, tooth-lock washers and nuts from the interface accessory

value of R24 and R25 resistors is 22 kΩ. The “B” version of VCO board is equipped by B081

type of operational

amp (it has 8 pins) on position IS1 and value of R24 and R25 resistors is 220 kΩ. Type of operational amp is

printed directly on its top side and values of the resistors can be measured with a multimeter for example.

For the “A” version (IS1 = A109; R24,

R25 = 22kΩ), plug the jumper on

interface board to position “A” (fig.

2.5.8).

For the “B” version (IS1 = B081; R24,

R25 = 220kΩ), plug the jumper on

interface board to position “B” (fig.

2.5.8).

This is equivalent of more known µA709 type.

This is equivalent of more known TL081 type.

a) Turn the top cover back to its original position on the instrument and fix it two original screws and washers

(fig. 2.6.1). This is the reverse procedure of that described in the chapter 2.1.

MIDI INPUT AND OUTPUT

If you do not want to mechanically damage the panels of the instrument by drilling, you can use alternative

metod of the MIDI – IN / OUT sockets montage. You can lead out the MIDI cables through a slot on the

instrument cover (fig. 3.1.1). In that case, you will have to replace the delivered MIDI cables with another ones

equipped with cable type of the DIN sockets or plugs.

If you decide to install only MIDI-IN socket, the X4 connector (MIDI-THRU/OUT) on the interface board will

remain unused (see fig. 2.5.4).

In this case, you can replace the original headphones socket (on rear panel – fig. 3.1.2) with the MIDI-IN socket

so that a drilling to the instarument is not necessary.
