I have a newbie question: how do people get their final audio signals
out of their synths and into conventional audio gear? I'm more of a
computer guy than a musician or audio engineer, so I don't have a
studio full of audio equipment to interface to. I will want to listen
to my synth through monitor speakers or headphones, and eventually to
digitally record its output for mixing on a computer.

These big 10V P-P signals need to be attenuated down. don't they?
Should I do that with a VCA, or a mixer module, or some special module,
or with outboard equipment?

Sorry if this is boring to everyone else!
