I’m thinking of investing in a MuRF step adapter, however being the creative hobbyist I am, I was wondering if anyone knew the wiring diagram for this device, as I would like to make a switch that allows on the fly switching between standard tap tempo mode and step triggering mode.
I like your thinking! Very cool idea! If I had a MuRF, I’d take it apart myself and check it out. Anyone have any ideas on switch adding for the MuRF? Amos? GregAE? Anyone?
I was searching around for a cost effective solution and found one - in the moog forum… a Y cable with a TRS male end (into Tap / Step) and two female TS ends. Plugging the standard moog foot switch into one of either females gives you tap tempo or step. Now I just need to make a simple on the fly switch that routes as required…
This opens up so many possibilities with other CV sources for syncing - especially envelope CV’s from the 101 and 107…
It could be fun to cut the cord off the footswitch and/or make a cable with an inline mode switch. Or make a small box with two 1/4" jacks (in and out) with a mode switch.
Looking at the diagram, if I made a TRS lead that used a 2 core cable & connected one end to a jack TS & the other jack TR, put the TS end into the env out on a MF-101 & the TR into the tap tempo/pattern step on the murf, would this make the murf run through the pattern as the note was played (probably starting fast & then slowing down)?
I made the said cable up & tried it. The MF-101 needs to be before the murf for it to work & each note changes 1 step.
Good if you want to take advantage of the envelope on the resonance filters for either staccato or reverse sounding notes.
A wee update for you. The cable from the LPF to the Bass Murf works well if you have a hot signal into the LPF & the Murf after it. It would be good to split my signal & have a signal into a booster (such as a cheapo distortion) & then into the Murf’s step.
I also made a step adaptor using a mono jack socket & a stereo Jack & just connected sleeve to sleeve & tip to ring. Works fine & cost about £4 to make.
