Thank you all for posting in this helpful thread. Unfortunately I have everything going except the CV still isn't right. I am getting just a Middle C playing when I play my Monotribe from The MiniBrute. I am wondering if it's because of this jack. See attached pic. I am using this plugged into the Monotribe's Sync out with two two Stereo Sync Cables going into the MiniBrute. I have also tried using T/S cables with adapters and different combos that should work but no avail. See attached pic I was informed by another forum that this would work. Any advice, ideas appreciated.

I use this cable:

with these adaptors:

Works great for me.  S/O to theshaggyfreak for finding the right cable.  Here's his YouTube video describing how you hook it up:

Thanks for the info. I M going to buy one of those. I can return the adapter I showed in my post but I was hoping to get it working guess it ain't gonna happen without Nokia.

I used the proper cable and things worked fine but quit pitch correct...so followed the Korg instructions...CV pitch calibration playing the C4 and C5 keys on the Minibrute while pressing play on the Monotribe....now the monotribe is tottally fu$%ed up.....high notes are low and low notes are high and totally random pitch even when NOT connected to the Minibrute....How do I reset this?????

The Monotribe can work in either Volt Per Octave or hz per volt, did that setting get inadvertently changed? Did the cable get inverted so the gate and pitch signals were routed to the wrong jacks? Is is the  gate polarity set to "active high" or "active low""?

Problem solved

Two things

First I had the cutoff vcf on monotribe turned too much to the left which made the higher octives go lower, solved it with a slight nudge to the right

Second I turned led 2 off in the setting on the monotribe
So now it is first led on second led off and third led off
Does everyone have these settings?

And it works
Thanks for the help

Just wanted to say thanks.

I picked up a Nokia 3.5mm TRRS to 3xRCA cable on Ebay along with a couple of RCA to 3.5mm TS adapters, but I was having trouble figuring out the settings and going through the procedure for getting everything to work to send Pitch and Gate from my MicroBrute to the Monotribe. The posts in this thread helped me get it all sorted out.

Cheers, everyone.  :-*

Fixed it  :D

Had the gate source on the wrong setting .... doh   :-\

It's good times now its working, adds a whole lot to both devices. It's now well worth investing in Monotribe for anyone with a Minibrute. (Instant additional oscillator with cool filter and LFO)
how you fixed the gate source???????
