Powered by USB Power Supply:

1. Use a USB A-to-Mini cable to connect 

the QuNexus Mini port (on the right side 

of the QuNexus) to a USB Power 

Supply.

2. Connect the Power Supply to a power 

outlet.

3. See steps 2 and 3 from the “Powered by 

a Computer” steps.

QuNexus can communicate with synthesizers or other CV devices using Control Voltages. 
Connect QuNexus to CV devices using a cable that is compatible with your CV device’s CV 
ports. Using adapters if needed, make sure one end can plug into one of the stereo 1/8in CV out 
ports on the left side of QuNexus. QuNexus’ CV input port (on the right side) requires one end to 
be a 3.5 mm TRRS (like the ones used for Apple iPhone headsets). 

Warning

QuNexus' CV In is uni-polar. If you send it a bi-polar signal, half of the signal will 

be clipped and can cause malfunctions in extreme cases. Sending a signal above 5 Volts is 

also unsupported. See the 

Converting CV Input from +/- 10V to 0V/5V

 section for information 

on how to make a converter.

The following section provides more detail about the cable connectors needed for QuNexus CV.
