>>                although we don't actually do an internal MIDI retro-fit
>>for the Vortex, it can be controlled using a KADI unit. This is an
>>external box (originally intended for drum machines) which converts MIDI
>>data to trigger signals.
>>
>>        The MIDI data may be in the form of program change commands, or
>>note data and the trigger signal may be a positive or negative, level,
>>or pulse, the duration of which is user definable. With the addition of
>>a suitable lead, the device will be able to control all the inputs on
>>the Vortex. The full spec. is as follows...
