MIDI Converter

Compact, accurate MIDI to CV Gate and Sequencer control converter.

- CV (12 bit DAC)
- Gate
- Pitchbend (12 bit DAC)
- Velocity (12 bit DAC)
- Assignable CC (12 bit DAC)
- Clock out that gives 16ths (suitable for the HZ)
- Seq gate out (high when seq playing, low when seq stopped)
- Seq reset (momentary high when seq reset)
- 10 note buffer
- re-trigger on note release and new note played
- learn midi channel
- learn C0
- learn CC
- responds to sustain pedal (on CC64) when pedal is pressed all notes are held on
- responds to a received midi panic
- pushing more than 10 notes simultaneously on the controller keyboard triggers an internal midi panic
- PB range adjustable using CC119
- midi channel, C0, assigned CC and PB range stored in non-volatile memory

Product Focus...   MD2650/2600 Sequential Switch/Scanner



MD2650 Sequential Switch
Limited Edition
(Only 100 have been made.)

Bidirectional signal routing with full +/-15V range.
3 in --- 1 Out
1 In -- 3 Out

Use for audio or CV sequencing.

Built in or external clock.

MD2600 Scanner
Limited Edition (Only 100 have been made.)

Under manual or voltage control, this module selects from one of three inputs and sends it to the output.

Use for audio or CV selection. Full +/-15V range.

On board trimmers allow selectable amount of overlap between inputs and size of voltage steps for scanning.

Check out this Video for product features and applications!

These two modules are sold as a set. One price gets you two modules!

Advanced 16 Stage Sequential Switch with many extras!

Great potential for awesome modulations!

We've worked hard to keep an "analog feel" coupled with the advantages of digital control, display and memory.

Very simple but effective menu architecture can be learned in a matter of minutes.
  • Bidirectional +/-15V low R switches
  • Microprocessor Control
  • Backlit LCD Display
  • Two CVouts with 1V/Oct over five octaves
  • Variable Gate out on each step with 1-99% of step width plus Hold and Rest
  • Loop on any step
  • Internal or external Gate (Stop/Start) and Reset
  • Set active switch on any step plus Random function
  • Memory holds 32 Sequences, 60 Chains
  • Sequences can be Chained
  • Chains can be Chained
  • A second Chain can be edited while another is playing
  • Sequences or Chains can be copied and pasted
  • Internal wide range clock or external clock plus dividable Clock Out for either clock source

What they are saying.......

"....got the Hex Zone a couple of days ago. It's great!

I'm really impressed with its features and the overall quality of the
module. Its probably one of the most advanced (well probably *the* most advanced) modular sequncer available at present. Thankyou for making this!!

I may even consider a 2nd one in the future. Its really *that* good,
versatile, useful, fun... I better take a breath now! ...And there's so
much I've yet to try with it. The Hex Zone is my first Blacet product, but will certainly not be my last. " -- A.F.

*************************************************

"I bought and built the Hex zone and am quite impressed and happy with it.  The UI is well laid out and quick to edit." -- G.S.

*************************************************

"This looks maximally cool.

Your simple user interface seems an elegant approach to supporting programming, playing, and system functions.  Boiling it down to a few familiar controls and hierarchical menu screens, like an iPod, a good digital audio recorder or Roland sequencers.  With all the expected analog control/signal outs, bi-directional switch and BPM clockability.  Say amen!

Gonna be some serious tracking here when it arrives!

Thanks for another great module (and the years of work that went into it)!" --R.T.

**************************************************

"I really am enjoying the Hex Zone far more than I originally expected. It fills a gap in sequencing that I had in my setup. For
the longest time I've been using the MFB Seq-01sequencer (one of only two euro modules I have).

While the Hex Zone doesn't replace it's functionality, it certainly has stepped up to be the dominating sequencer in my setup. So much so that I'm considering purchasing a second one." -- R.H.








No "flying wires" design for quick assembly!
WC2700 Window Comparator
Limited Edition (Only 100 have been made.)

A voltage controlled window comparator with complete control of output setpoint and width.

Use with envelope or LFO type signals to generate delayed gates and triggers. Or use with audio waveforms for many interesting permutations.

Normal, inverted and trigger outputs with green and blue LEDs.

Input normalled to built-in ramp generator for stand alone delayed gate/trigger timing.

Precision, ultra stable Ramp generator has bonus Rate CV, Gate and separate output for use by itself!

A very unusual and useful module!

SB2780 Splitter

A precision, low offset, one to three splitter for CVs or audio. One source to three destinations. Fully buffered.

"A" Channel has an attenuator, "B" Channel has a phase changing attenuator, "C" Channel is "straight through" but buffered.

A very handy utility module!

Since the Splitter and Mixer are close cousins, we have  decided to bundle them as a pair to provide the best deal.

For the Kit version, this is an excellent, simple beginner kit to build two complete modules!





SB2790 Mixer

A precision, low offset, three to one mixer for CVs or audio. Three sources to one destination. Fully buffered.

"A" Channel has an attenuator, "B" Channel has a phase changing attenuator, "C" Channel is "straight through" but buffered and has a trimpot for setting 50% to 100% level.

A very handy utility module!

Since the Splitter and Mixer are close cousins, we have  decided to bundle them as a pair to provide the best deal.

For the Kit version, this is an excellent, simple beginner kit to build two complete modules!
