Expert Sleepers FH-2 Factotum: The Swiss Army Knife of MIDI-to-CV
The Expert Sleepers FH-2 Factotum is a powerful 8HP module that serves as the ultimate bridge between your USB/MIDI hardware and your Eurorack system.Unlike standard converters, the FH-2 is simultaneously a USB MIDI host (allowing you to plug controllers directly into the front panel) and a USB MIDI device (for direct connection to a computer or tablet). Supporting MPE, polyphonic voice allocation, arpeggiators, and a vast LFO generator, the FH-2 truly lives up to its name "Factotum." The crisp OLED display allows for on-module configuration, while a convenient web-based tool is available for complex preset management.
