I didn't see anybody answer this, and none of my Roland manuals (TR-808,
MC-4) seem to specify what the DIN input sync socket takes. For
Gate/Trigger/MPX OUTPUTS though, Roland seems to be going with 12 to 15
volts. However for the external sync 1/8" connector and Gate inputs on the
Roland MC-4 sequencer, they specify a threshold of 2.5 volts to trigger.
Don't know if this helps.
