Most Moogs use a negative voltage trigger (called S-trigger) and the ARP uses a positive voltage trigger. A few Moogs have a positive trigger, dunno if the Prodigy is one.

The pitch CV should be compatible.
I listened to Hatfield and the North at Rainbow. They were very wonderful and they made my heart a prisoner.

Yes, I've also heard that the Prodigy is s-trigger.

Here is an example of how to make the circuit to convert s-trig to gate.
