[sdiy] guitar effects (small stone Electro Harmonix)vs synthesizers

[Jerry Gray-Eskue]

signal levels in the 10V P-P range, control voltages in the +/-5V or 0-10V
range and Gate levels of 5V.

Typical synth is 5V peak to peak, so something a bit less for RMS ;-)

Check this link again, Ken Stone does a good job of explaining the
