Prophet-10 User’s Guide
Rear Panel Connections
7. Control Voltage Out—Standard ¼ inch connector. This jack outputs a
0- +5V signal for interfacing with modular synthesizers and other devices
that support this type of connectivity. It is congured for 1-volt-per-
octave operation for gear that recognizes that standard. The CV output
tracks the last note played on the Prophet-10 keyboard.
8. Gate Out—Standard ¼ inch connector. This jack outputs a 15-volt
on/off signal typically used to gate the envelopes of an external synth
that supports this type of connectivity. The Gate Out signal is triggered
whenever a key is pressed on the Prophet-10.
9. Control Voltage In—Standard ¼ inch connector. This jack accepts
a 0 to + 5V signal for interfacing with modular synthesizers and other
devices that support this type of connectivity. They are congured for
1-volt-per-octave operation for gear that recognizes that standard. A CV
In signal affects only a single voice of the Prophet-10.
10. Gate In—Standard ¼ inch connector. This jack accepts a 1.5 to
15-volt on/off signal to gate the envelopes of a single voice on the
Prophet-5. Whenever a ¼ inch connector is inserted into the rear-panel
gate in jack on the Prophet-10, its keyboard polyphony is reduced to
9 voices. The envelopes of the fth voice are triggered by the gate in
signal.
11. Phones — ¼ inch stereo headphone jack. Headphone volume is
controlled by the volume knob on the front panel.
12. Audio Out—Unbalanced, ¼ inch audio output.
