style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">What sort of levels do most <SPAN
class=SpellE>modulars</SPAN> use for CV and audio? From what I've seen, it
looks like +/-5V for audio, and 0 to +10V for control voltages. If so, I think
I can see the reasoning behind it (positive and negative swings allow audio
signals to add and subtract from each other, while keeping CVs positive only
makes it easier to build something like a keyboard by just using a resistor
divider chain and a bunch of switches), but I'm more than willing to admit I'm
not really 100% sure. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
