Pitch woes with MG-1 and CV

Post by allochthon » Wed Aug 13, 2014 12:18 am

I am sending a 1V/octave CV from a Doepfer Dark Link to a "Moog" Mg-1, which to the best of my knowledge is also 1V/octave. The result is wildly out of tune from the source, and octaves are out of tune with each other. This sounds like a case of mismatching Hz/Octave and V/Octave, but it could be something else entirely... Anyone have a clue what this might be a result of?

Yeah the MG1 wants V/Oct and S-Triggers. Seems like it's not calibrated properly, but don't expect it to perfectly track V/Oct anyways... Moogs don't do that :thumbright:
