amplifying a trigger?

2004-08-18 by Paul Wagorn

Any way anyone can think of to amplify a 5v trigger into a 10v trigger to
drive a 2600 from a 606) using a motm?  (Or other means?)

 

Unfortunately I don't have a vc lag.

 

I was thinking maybe putting a DC 9v battery into a 700 dual vc router &
switching it with the 5v trigger.  - would this work?  Can I put DC into an
audio input of this thing without wrecking it?

 

Maybe using the suboctMux?  Put the trigger into the input & use the gain on
one of the octaves to output a higher volt (and I guess longer)  'trigger'..
again, would what is essentially a short DC way below audio freq (the 5v
trigger) hurt it?

 

Any other ideas?  I find that my 2600 gets little use nowadays because of
this incompatibility with everything else that I own that uses 5v triggers

 

thanks
