Little addition,
make sure you've connected the CV out-in aswell. I
didn't from the CS-5 -> MS-10, which resulted in only the noise generator
working (as that doesn't need any pitch). The rest of the oscillator was stone
dead and I thought my synth was totally broken, until a bird whispered in my ear
to use the CV in/outs aswell..and lo and behold, there was sound.

As far as I know, the only synths the Korg's can
interface with are the Yamaha CS-series.
Korg uses a Hertz/Octave system instead of
1V/octave that Moog uses.
I have a Korg MS-10 that controls my Yamaha CS-5
perfectly, actually they're married, as the MS-10 keyboard doesn't work. And
together they become a big 2VCO, 2 VCF synth with massive sound.
There is a full explanation of the two different CV
systems here :
I suggest you read, it's nice to know for future
use. It's too complicated to go into here. :)
Actually there are several more "standards" certain
manufacturers use that differ from their competitors, heaven knows why. Some go
with 1.8V/Octave etc.

I recently purchased a moog prodigy (without the keyboard). . so, it
has a CV-in and trigger in.
I've tried controlling it with the Korg Mono/Poly (which also uses
V/Oct scaling) and it did not seem to trigger the Prodigy. . OR the
Prodigy just refuses to produce sound..
I can make the Prodigy play sounds by tapping knobs or flicking the
face of the unit. . I assume something connection is lose or bad.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
