Hello to all ... how can I connect my Moog SUB 37 to BeatStep Pro? I would use the Pitch inputs, Velo and Gate
Thank you

Why the hassle. Just hook it up via MIDI. Thatīs it

Cause I have the midi output connected to Logic. Try 'to use only the CV with BSP...

That is understandable, but be aware that BSP's CV-out goes to 10V. Some analog gear only accepts up to 5V (like the SUB 37). Just saying, there is a risk of frying your gear (in the case of M00g's equipment, the word is that they have resistors to prevent this, but those can be burned, and then your machine is potentially in danger.)
I should add, that this is a subject on which there has been said lots of conflicting stuff. The producer of the BSP probably does not feel obliged to be accountable to other companies' technical choices, and they cannot really be expected to provide guidance on connectivity to any gear out there. M00g, on the other hand, doesn't seem to touch the issue too much, as I guess they feel they cannot make guarantees on the performance of various product from other vendors.
So we are left in a limbo. I play it safe and use midi (not to my SUB, unfortunately, but to my Minitaur and DSI Tetr4).

You could use attenuators.
You will damage the moog in the end, if you don't.

Does anyone know if this applies to the Make Noise O-Coast as far as potential damage to my unit due to the 10v issue
