I have to correct my above statement. For the A-155 the allowed voltage
range for the external A-155 CV/audio inputs is -5...+12V (not -8...+8V).
The -8V...+8V are valid only for the old versions of A-150, A-151 and A-148.
The A-152 already uses the new multiplexers that allow a -12V...+12V voltage
range. And the A-154 uses no voltage controlled switches with external
access. Sorry for the confusions ...

Best wishes
