Thanks for your reply, Yulian. I've been in touch with Mr. Tique who said that there's no harm in doing this -- I won't 'break' anything -- but that I could encounter a situation in which the voltage drops to the point (< 4 volts) where the GATE fails to signal an ON state.
FWIW, I had 4-5 GATEs each stacked on two VCFQ Trig Ins and it worked fine. He said the VCFQ Trig in is a different case, though, since it looks only for a rising edge and not a full GATE.

I guess so.. There shouldn't be any danger in combining the GATE OUTs of each step (since you cannot, at least to my knowledge, have more than one step active at a time).. However, if you were to combine a step's gate out with, say the KP out, then you might end up with 2 live outs ganged together...

Perhaps Mr. Tique or Mr. Puller might shed some light on the subject?

Subject: [SergeModular] TKB safety




Is it safe to take multiple GATE outs from the TKB and combine them at a single input such as a Variable Q VCF's TRIG IN, if the GATEs are never firing simultaneously with one another?
I know it's akin to connecting the GATE of one TKB step to the GATE out of another, but...
