We’ve created a hi-res Control Voltage Convertor to fully exploit the fast data rates and ranges of the Continuum, ContinuuMini, EaganMatrix Module, and ExpressiveE Osmose.  A single CVC provides 16 control voltages (4 voices), or two CVCs together provide 32 control voltages (8 voices), on 3.5 mm TS jacks.

The CVC is designed to translate every nuance of your performance into control voltage, giving you an accurate connection to your analog synths without unwanted smoothing or artifacts.

1. Eurorack-ready CVC, for mounting within a standard Eurorack enclosure.
   Buy one for 16 control voltages (4 voices).
   Buy two and the Dual CVC Interconnect Kit for 32 control voltages (8 voices).

2. Stand-alone Single CVC, self-contained in an enclosure and powered by USB-C.

3. Stand-alone Dual CVC, self-contained in an enclosure and powered by USB-C.

The CVC can be programmed via the Haken Editor to create entirely custom control voltages; up to 8 control voltages can be defined for a voice, integrating formula math, shape generators, delays, and other EaganMatrix functionality into your analog performance.

The Evaton µCVC

As an alternative to the Haken Audio CVC, you might consider the Eurorack µCVC from Evaton Technologies:

• Pros: If your requirements are four Eurorack control signals (W, X, Y, Z plus gate) and one-voice polyphony, a single µCVC provides significant cost savings and convenience to do everything you need. Two µCVCs may be combined for a maximum of two-voice polyphony. The µCVC mounts directly in your Eurorack and has 3.5 mm outputs. Evaton developed the µCVC in cooperation with Haken Audio, and it is compatible with all the Haken Audio products. The µCVC is especially attractive for use with the EaganMatrix Module and the ContinuuMini.

• Cons: The µCVC has fewer analog outputs than the Haken Audio CVC; you get a maximum of two voices if you have two µCVCs, but up to four voices with the Haken Audio CVC (or 8 voices if you use a dual CVC configuration). The µCVC cannot make use of more-than-four-outputs-per-finger features of the EaganMatrix CVC bank, which lets the sound designer create up to eight custom control voltages per voice. The µCVC does not have Haken Audio CVC “Base Voice” feature, which allows you to enable subsets of CVC outputs.

Compatibility

The Haken Audio CVC and the Evaton µCVC are designed only for compatibility with the EaganMatrix Sound Engine. The sound engine is connected directly to the CVC using an i2c protocol, avoiding Midi altogether. The CVC is specifically made for the Continuum, ContinuuMini, EaganMatrix Module, and Osmose; the CVC will not work with any other device.
