Ultra-compact MIDI to CV conversion in a space-saving footprint.

The Doepfer A-190-9 translates incoming MIDI notes into reliable pitch and gate voltages while taking up a minimal two horsepower of rack space.

This micro-sized module provides a straightforward MIDI-to-CV conversion channel for monophonic synthesizer voices. It strips away complex menus and multi-page configurations in favor of immediate, reliable hardware control, making it an ideal choice for compact live performance rigs or densely packed cases.

Dual CV and gate outputs allow you to drive two separate voice modules simultaneously without requiring extra passive multiples or stackable patch cables. A rear jumper switches between TRS Type A and Type B standards, ensuring direct compatibility with any external controller or sequencer without requiring specialized adapters.

In daily use, the module delivers fast timing and predictable pitch tracking across standard 1V/Octave gear. An onboard trimmer on the back panel lets you recalibrate the voltage scaling for microtonal tuning experiments or non-standard hardware. It also connects directly to select modules as a dedicated breakout, feeding MIDI data straight into hardware sequencers or quantizers.
