Expert Sleepers NTX-8CV

Introduction

The NTX-8CV is a 4HP Eurorack module with three quite distinct purposes.

USB MIDI to CV converter

The NTX-8CV offers MIDI/CV conversion, using a design based on our best-in-class FH-2, but in a more compact form factor.

Its dual role USB port allows the NTX-8CV to operate both as a USB MIDI Class compliant device (e.g. connected to a computer or tablet) and as a USB host (so you can plug a USB MIDI controller straight in).

USB audio/CV interface

The NTX-8CV operates as a USB Audio Class compliant device, offering 8 channels of DC coupled audio or CV outputs (and so is compatible with Silent Way, CV Tools, Bitwig Studio etc.).

disting NT output expander

The NTX-8CV connects directly to a disting NT, adding 8 CV outputs. Additional NTX-8CV units can be daisy-chained for up to 64 extra CV outputs (on top of the NT's own 8).
