Thanks for all the feedback.  I didn't think about the volts on the
606.  Looking it up it appears to be 15.

"Each trigger is a positive 15 Volt, 20 millisecond pulse suitable for
activating either the Trigger or Gate inputs of most major brands of
equipment."

Thinking about this, I realized I also have an Arp Axxe that I think I
could use as a CV/gate source to give it a run.  I'll have to research
the voltage on that as well.

I'm primarily interested in getting this thing to generate some test
tones.  Ultimately, I'll end up driving it with a step sequencer or
clock/divider/switch thing.  It seems it's just a matter of giving all
my money to Doepfer one chunk at a time.
