Control Voltage Ranges

2007-05-08 by Richard Lainhart

All: I have a 200e system on order, for which I am waiting patiently, 
and plan to use my Continuum, created by Lippold Haken, as the main 
controller for the system. While waiting, I've been testing Lippold's 
new Continuum Voltage Convertor, or CVC, which is designed to convert 
the MIDI output from the Continuum to individual patchable control 
voltage outputs for use with analog synthesizers:

Lippold has designed a few presets for several of the control voltage 
standards currently in use, including the common 1 volt/octave, 0-10+ 
volts scheme and the Moog Voyager's peculiar .935 volt/octave 
standard. Lippold is very interested in providing a preset for the 
200e, and has asked me about its control voltage standards. I don't 
have one, of course, and the 200e article on Wikipedia seems a little 
incomplete concerning control voltage ranges.

 From the article, it appears that the 200e's standard is 1.2 
v/octave, with a range of roughly 0-10+ volts. Can anyone tell me if 
that's correct - that the voltage range is positive only, and 0-10+ 
only, or does the 200e support negative voltages or a wider control 
voltage range?

Lippold and I thank you for any help you can provide.
