DIN Sync
‘DIN Sync’ is an interface introduced by Roland in the 1980s for the timing
synchronization of synths, sequencers and drum machines etc. The interface uses a 5
pin DIN connectors but by means of a simple jack plug adapter (purchased or DIY),
Pamela’s Workout can be used with DIN Sync devices.
By connecting a DIN Sync clock to the clock input (with a setting of 24 PQN) and the
start/stop to the run input Pamela will run as a DIN Sync slave syncing to an external
clock signal.
By using two trigger outputs, one set as a 24 multiplier connected to the DIN Sync
clock trigger and the other set as a constant gate connected to the DIN Sync Start/
Stop trigger Pamela can act as a DIN Sync master and drive external DIN Sync devices.
ALM004 - ‘D.S.G’ provides such an adaptor in eurorack module format. Also a
suitable adaptor cable is made by ‘Expert Sleepers’ with the code’ ‘DJ-1200’ .
