The versatile Analog Four MKII yearns to play with other machines. Whether it uses its ability to sequencer
control and play other analog synths using CV, plays its part in a MIDI chain of machines or processes am-
plified incoming audio: the Analog Four MKII gets along with other gear. Vintage or modern. Five examples
are shown here.
15.1 ANALOG FOUR MKII CONTROL OF AN EXTERNAL ANALOG SYNTHESIZER
PITCH
GATE
FILTER
The CV/Gate track of the Analog Four MKII is made for controlling external, CV/Gate equipped, analog
gear. In this scenario, a vintage analog synthesizer is controlled by the Analog Four MKII. The pitch and filter
cutoff will be controlled.
1. Connect three standard mono phone cables to the Analog Four MKII CV A, B and C outputs.
2. Connect the CV A cable to the external synth pitch CV control input. This cable will control the pitch of
the external synth.
3. Connect the CV B cable to the external synth gate input. This cable will open the envelope of the exter-
nal synth.
4. Connect the CV D cable to the external synth filter CV input. This cable will control the filter cutoff of the
external synth.
