[sdiy] Polymoog as Controller Keyboard?

I haven't actually started playing with the CV out of the Polymoog. The thought only came to mind when I started tossing around the modular idea. From what the service manual says, the keyboard is split into a 24 note lower section (E1 to Eb2) and a 47 note upper section (E3 to D6). It looks like the Lower/Upper selector determines where the CV comes from and the Split/All determines where the trigger out comes from.

	I haven't tried that, although it seems like so
	big power supply as in PM
	wouldn't mint powering few extra modules.
	
	Actually I wanted to ask you how did your Polymoog
	work as CV source.
	When I connected mine, it turned out CV is valid
	only while playing upper
	2 thirds of the keyboard. Anything pressed on
	lower part generated no CV.
	and all started from 0V at the begining of middle
	keyboard part.
	Do you get proper CV response from entire
	keyboard?

	Just wondering if anyone out there has ever had
	any luck, or even bothered trying, using the
	Polymoog as a controller keyboard for oh, let's
	say, a modular. I ask because I have now gotten
	the it to a fairly good working state of being,
	and have decided, for my next adventure, to try my
	hand at putting together some modules. Of course,
	I've got the cv and trigger outs on the Polymoog,
	but what about using the accessory power
	connection as a start for powering the modules? I
	imagine I wouldn't want to tap into it to much and
	draw too much current off of the power supply.
	This may sound silly, but so did me saying I was
	actually going to fix the Poly. Thoughts anyone?
	
	Tony
