Thanks for this. I'm relieved that this is something that I should be able to sort out!

The p6's arp trig is expecting an 's-trig' ie. something which is shorting five volts across the tip and sleeve of the jack. The tr is sending a v-trig ie. a positive pulse trigger. You can get converters, or make one up yourself easy enough / get the fella who fixed your synth to do one. Really easy, even I managed. You might find this page helpful:

When triggering the P6's arpeggiator with my Roland TR thingee, it's just slightly behind the beat, no matter what patch I'm on/adjusting parameters etc.Is this a design fault? Or do I need to look at how I'm connecting up etc? With my Juno 60 it was bang on but, although the P6 undoubtedly "sounds" better, proper analog arp-goodness, I was kinda hoping that the chap could handle staying on the beat with a simple drum machine. Especially as I sold the Juno and can't afford to get another one any time soon.Cheers, Chris
