The MOTM-850 pedal interface is the only "official" MOTM module that can generate a gate signal of sufficient amplitude for your 2600 (I get >11 volt out of mine). Plug your 5 volt trigger into the PEDAL input, set the GATE knob somewhere between 0 and 5 (whatever works best for you), and patch the GATE output to your 2600. Using a 700 to switch in a DC signal will also work, I've done that a few times, you won't wreck anything. But you still have to find a 10V DC source. >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?
