The Syntakt likes to play with other machines. Whether it uses its ability to sync and play with legacy machines or controls other synthesizers: Syntakt gets along with other gear.
16.1 SYNTAKT WITH A MONOPHONIC BASS MACHINE
The DIN sync capabilities of the Syntakt allows you to use gear from yesteryear.
In this example, a legacy monophonic bass machine is used alongside the Syntakt. The Syntakt can stop, start and control the tempo of the bass machine.
- Prepare a bassline pattern on the bass machine.
- Connect the output of the bass machine to the mixer using a Mono jack 6.3 mm male cable.
- Connect the Syntakt audio outputs to the mixer using 2 x Mono or Stereo jack 6.3 mm male cables.
- Use a DIN connector cable to connect the MIDI OUT of the Syntakt to the SYNC IN of the bass machine.
- On the Syntakt, press [SETTINGS], and then navigate to MIDI CONFIG > PORT CONFIG and set OUT PORT CONFIG to DIN24.
- Press [PLAY] on the Syntakt.
