Yes, I also thought of using the Voltage Converter. This means that the converter will send v/octave information to the 200e oscillators in order to control their pitch. Do they have a 1.2v/oct input or they use only the MIDI notes form its own MIDI/USB module? Have you used the continuum already? Is the situation problematic as it is?
