Multimoog as controller?

Hi all!

New to the forum, but I'm thrilled to have found what seems to be a great community of mad scientists and musicians. I'm an IT guy by trade, an amateur musician for fun, and the owner of a century-old house (so lots of DIY, learn-as-you-go experience). Anyways, I have a WSG kit sitting here in a box, and just ordered an SN Voice PCB. I have a MultiMoog that's been following me around for 20+ years - can it's CV/gate signals be used to control other synth modules, or do I need to build/buy a general purpose keyboard controller?

Thanks!

The Multimoog's CV can definitely control other modules. 1V/Oct if I recall. You may need to adapt gate/trigger for other modules, depends on the module.

Excellent - thanks! Can you clarify what I might need to do with the gate/trigger signal?

This is what I used for my Moog Micro.

Good luck!

Dude! Thanks a million!

Funny thing, I both have the manual containing that schematic, and actually built one of those cables about 20 years ago. Amazing how much we forget over the years.

Cheers!
