hello all
you're actually looking for the Korg MS03, a stand alone pitch to CV &
envelope follower
i think i have a PDF of the user manual, but there's plenty of stuff on the
web about it, just dial in:
ms03
ms-03
ms3
ms-3

if you're looking for pitch to CV, look up the Roland SPV-555, it's
allegedly quite nifty

cheers

Tom G collaborated with someone on the Synth DIY list to make a Pitch to CV
circuit board.  He may still have some left.  You can contact him at:

One that was produced commercially and supposedly worked well was the Gentle
Electric.  I think Dave Fulton used to have one, so he may be able to
comment on it.

i think you mean the SPV-355.  not a bad sounding synth but the 
tracking was bad enough for me to give up on the concept of "guitar 
synths."  it rocked drum machines though.

Does the SPV-355 have CV in and out?  So you can control the synth part from
something other than the pitch to cv and you can use the pitch to cv to control
something other than the synth part?

hello all,
it has a cv & gate input for external control of the synth section, but i
can't remember for sure whether it has cv & gate output - i think it has
