Based on the 12 bit polyphonic midi to CV converter I used in a few other projects I decided to try to make a 16 bit version, way over the top for CV when 14 bits are enough but I had some spare 8 channel 16 bit DACs so why not. It actually has 20 CV outs, 12 for VCO CV and 6 for velocity. Then two for PB and modwheel. The idea was to build in an autotune function for each VCO of a 12 oscillator synth but I never got that far, so only 2 DAC chips are required for standard use.

It acts as a usb host, midi or usb MIDI and is Teensy 4.1 based.
