Modular synthesizer enthusiasts looking for a simple yet powerful MIDI to CV module will be impressed with the erica synths Hexinverter Mutant Brain, a compact Eurorack-compatible MIDI to CV/gate module, which can serve as the central nervous system of your setup by interfacing your analog modular system with a variety of MIDI equipment and sequencers. With four CV outputs and 12 gate outputs, the module is well suited for percussion, polyphonic notes, and sync duties.

The module responds to up to 5 MIDI channels, allowing for the first 4 channels to control melodic synthesizers components (CV/Gate) signals, while the fifth channel controls gate triggers 5-12, which are assigned by default to C4 to C5 on a MIDI controller keyboard. Mutant Brain Surgery, a free configuration utility allows you to customize the settings and upload the configuration to the Mutant Brain via Sysex commands.

Q: 1. Do the new DSMC2 lineup of cameras have built in scratch audio?

A: Yes

Q: 2. What button or dial wheel controls the lens aperture on this kit? Or am I missing something here? Thanks

A: It is all controlled with this type of set up, through the touchscreen.

Q: 3. To be able to hit 7 cameras with the one XLR output, do you just passively split the signal, e.g. jumper a set of jacks on a patch panel together? Or how do you hit multiple?

A: This is a very specialized product. You may want to call up Marshall directly at (310) 333-0606 for assistance wiring it out.

Q: 4. Can I shoot 5k and 6k raw at 24fps?

A: You can shoot 24p at all resolutions.

Q: 5. Will Movcam DSMC2 Base Kit fit onto this RED DIGITAL CINEMA DSMC2 BRAIN with GEMINI 5K S35 Sensor camera?

A: yes

Q: 6. Can I use a whirlwind split 6 to get to 6 cameras?

A: Yes. NOTE: Line level outputs can usually be split 6 times without noticeable loss of signal quality. The actual number of splits that can be accomplished depends on the level of the source signal and the impedances of the source and destinations in a particular application. It is not recommended that the SPLIT 6 be used to split a microphone level signal to more than two outputs. Attempting to do so may result in poor frequency response and reduced signal level. The SPLIT 6 may be used to split microphone level signals in most applications if this limit is observed.

Q: 7. With this kit, is there an XLR input or is a separate module required for that?

A: There isn't an XLR input on any of the RED DSMN2 brains, it will require the purchase of one of the RED expansion modules that includes XLR inputs

Q: 8. Can I set manually WB? 3200K or 5500 for example?

A: that ability will be solely dependent on the camera not on the controller, if the camera does not allow manual WB presets the controller can not add that functionality.

Q: 9. " . . .select popular cameras from other brands." Does that list include the Canon C300 MK II?

A: Not that we are aware of. This product is not compatible with the C300 Mark II.

Q: 10. Heard with this being a DSMC2 that the fan will get loud after a while of use. Do you know of any external components that can drown out the noise when shooting?

A: No there are no external components that will muffle the fan noise, and no such product is recommended by Red as it may cause over heating and damage the camera
