Thor LastKey has strange notes

[raccoonboy]

Hi there.

New to the forum. Quite new to Thor but have been making some cool things. Love the workflow.

One thing I'm stuck with though is that the LastKey (and MIDI key) on on Thor when routed to CV output seem to produce Notes all out of scale and about 3 octaves too high. :\

Any idea why this is?

Basically all I have is a blank reason file with Thor. Thor is playing midi notes, I am then using the 'Last key' routed to CV Out1 at 100 amount. This is then routed to the external MIDI instrument but it comes out all wierd.

Thanks in advance

Not entirely sure what last note will do, never routed it. But why dont use "midi note"?

Have you tried to use the Voice Key to modulate the Last Note. Route your CV to it and try different amounts.

I've figured out a better way to get the exact MIDI notes converted to CV. I really think there should be a standard MIDI to CV converter. There is the RP-8 arpegiator, but when you hold down keys they freeze 'on'. So that's not great.

Use the modulation settings:
Last Note - 100 - Seq Transpose
Last Gate - 100 - Seq Trig.

Then take the output from the Seq Note which will give you the correct MIDI notes.

Sequencer must be on 'Repeat', length of '1/16 steps' and sync OFF with the rate up to 250hz.

You can then use the Seq Gate out but I opted for a seperated Gate out through the CV as the sequencer gate voltage is lower and will affect the volume of any soft synth.

Great to hear you worked it out and thanks for sharing.

I think there is a "audio to cv" rack extension, seen it the other day.
