Controlling the Moog Source or Moog Rogue via CV/Gate
If you want to control a Moog Rogue or a Moog Source from the CV and Gate outputs of our devices (e.g. MCV4, MAQ16/3, Dark Time, Dark Link) you have to pay attention to the unusual assignment of the jack sockets of these synths:
Rogue/Source CV input = ring of the CV socket or the inserted plug (i.e. not the tip)
Rogue/Source voltage gate input = ring of the trigger socket or the inserted plug
Rogue/Source S-trigger input = tip of the trigger socket or the inserted plug
As most devices output the pitch CV at the tip of the socket one needs a special cable that connects the ring of the plug at the Moog side to the tip of the plug at the other side. E.g. a so-called insert cable may do this job (i.e. a cable with a 1/4" stereo plug on one side and two 1/4" mono plugs on the other side).
For the gate/trigger connection a standard mono 1/4" cable can be used if the MCV4 is set to S-Trigger mode (jumper inside the MCV4) and the trigger polarity is changed. For details please refer to the MCV4 manual. If the interface only features a voltage gate another special cable has to be used that connects the voltage gate to the ring of trigger socket.
