   Synclavier II had 2 Morley pedals as optional equipment . One was overall
volume, the
other was real time effects. Not sure if either was CV though.
   I've been searching old brochures, seems I remember someone selling a
Morley CV
pedal 0-5 volts . Sold for around $150.00 I think . Anyone on the list
remember these?
