SQ-80 — Musician's Manual
of synchronizing the Sequencer to an audio tape recording, or
> To read an incoming Clock Signal from another sequencing device (a drum machine, or other
sequencer) for the purpose of synchronizing the
SQ-80 Sequencer to that device without MIDI
connections. To do this simply connect the Tape Out or Clock Out jack of the other device to
the Tape In jack of the
SQ-80 and set the SQ-80's Clock Select for Tape Sync (see CONTROL
Page).
Specs: 10 Kohm input impedance. AC coupled. Triggers from 500 mVp-p up to 5 Vp-p. AC or DC coupled. 500 Hz maximum
response for sync.
5) Tape Out
Connect this Jack to the Input of a Tape Recorder to:
> Save Program or Sequence Data to Audio Tape, or
> Send out a Clock Signal (or sync track) to be recorded on audio tape so that you can synchronize
the Sequencer to that track.
Or.
> Connect this Jack to the Tape In jack of another sequencing device. and set that device for Tape
Sync. to sync it to the SQ-80's clock without MIDI connections.
Specs: 22 Kohm output i impedance. AC coupled. Drives I Vp-p into 10 KOhms (line level) and down to 100 mVp-p into 1 KOhm
(mic level).
6) Sequencer Foot Switch
This jack is for use with an ENSONIQ Model SW-1 Foot Switch. A Foot Switch connected here
can be used to start and stop the Sequencer.
7) Sustain Foot Switch
This jack also takes an ENSONIQ Model SW-1 Foot Switch. This switch acts as a Sustain
Pedal. Holding it down will cause notes to continue to sustain after the key has been released.
Note: The ENSONIQ Model SW-1 Foot Switch is wired with the contact Normall
y
Open. Some othe
manufacturers' footswitches are wired this way, and will work with the
SQ-80. Some are wired
the opposite way (Normally Closed) and will not work properly with the
SQ-80.
8) MIDI Out
Sends out MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) information to other instruments and
computers.
9) MIDI In Receives MIDI information from other MIDI instruments or
computers.
10) MIDI Thru
"Passes on" all MIDI information received by SQ-80 to other devices. Information generated
by the
SQ-80 itself does not go to this jack — the Thru jack merely echoes what comes in at the
MIDI In jack.
