Expert Sleepers ES-3 MK4
The Expert Sleepers ES-3 mk4 converts up to eight channels of ADAT Lightpipe to 3.5mm DC coupled output jacks, effectively allowing for an accurate connection between one’s DAW and Eurorack modular synthesizer system.
The module’s outputs can be used for both audio and CV, and it works very effectively with Silent Way. Connecting the module to a DAW is as simple as connecting an optical cable—and from there users can send CV to their entire system via their DAW.
