MIDI IN. Art Pro Audio Multiverb Alpha 2.0

NOTES:

1) When using the MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0 in the true stereo mode, only the dry signal will remain totally left and right orientated at the outputs. The processed signal will be a mix of the inputs with its own individual stereo image imposed by the algorithm used. This imitates the occurrence of natural reverberation in a normal room.

2) When you use one of the inverted type Flanger algorithms or the Panner, make sure you are using both outputs (stereo out), if you're using only one output you'll get NO SOUND! This is because since the two outputs are opposite and the

ALPHA 2.0 sums the outputs, the signals cancel each other.

MIDI IN

This jack receives the MIDI signal containing the MIDI messages. It enables you to "talk" to the ALPHA 2.0 from an external source such as an X-15 ULTRAFOOT, a computer equipped with MIDI ports and associated software or a sequencer. Any

MIDI information sent to the MIDI In jack is echoed to the MIDI Thru jack. When using the ALPHA 2.0 with an X-15 ULTRAFOOT, connect the MIDI cable to the 5 pin

MIDI OUT jack on the X-15.

MIDI OUT

The MIDI output jack is used to transmit all MIDI control information from the

MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0 to whichever MIDI device is next in the chain. When using the

ALPHA 2.0 with an X-15 ULTRAFOOT, connect the MIDI cable to the 5 pin MIDI IN jack on the X-15.

MIDI THRU

A MIDI Thru jack is provided on the ALPHA 2.0 allowing you to continue a chain of

MIDI devices and let MIDI information pass "thru" the unit to the next one.

Information leaving the Thru jack is a direct copy of the MIDI messages received at the MIDI In jack. The information is buffered so the integrity of the signal is not degraded when passing thru.

All MIDI Jacks are standard 5 pin DIN connectors utilizing standard MIDI connections. No phantom power is present on the unused terminals. ART recommends these unused terminals remain unused.

PWR OUT

The Power Output jack located at the rear panel provides an OUTPUT voltage of

(+)9 Volts DC. Use this jack to power external devices requiring a wall mount adapter. The ART X-11 and X-15 can be powered with this power jack. The jack will accept a female connector with an inside diameter of 2.1mm. Do not plug in any

external power supply such as a wall mount adapter to this jack. Doing this may cause serious damage to your ALPHA 2.0 or quite possibly yourself!

CONTROLS AND OPERATION

INPUT LEVEL INDICATORS

Three front panel LED's indicate signal at all times. They are labeled: PRES,

NOM, and CLIP. These LED's display the status of the input signal after it has passed the Input level control and the seven band equalizer. The bottom LED

(PRES) is green and lights when a small amount of signal is seen by the ALPHA

2.0. When you are operating with a nominal amount of signal the middle yellow LED

(NOM) lights. Clipping is indicated by the top red LED (CLIP).
