I had no problems whatsoever using my Serge with Dotcom modules (back when I still had a Dotcom system) and currently have no issues using my Serge CV and audio with various Moog pieces - moogerfoogers, Little Phatty. When I used it with Dotcom stuff, I had some Dotcom 1/4"-to-bananna panels. I also have some 1/4"-to-bananna cables that work just fine.

The only critical thing is to have a _common_ground_. Ground your Serge PS to your MIDI/CV converter or other voltage source, otherwise you won't get proper triggers/gates.

Serge responds just fine to the usual 1v/oct generated by sequencers and MIDI/cv converters without any problems at all.

Best Regards, James
