You may simply connect the "hot" midi output signal (i.e. not the GND pin) of the first module to the "hot" midi input of the second module. Connecting the GND is not required as the GND connection is made via the A-100 bus. That way the second module received the same Midi signa

That's exactly right. An analogue oscillator will *always* oscillate from the moment you turn it on, even between the notes. It doesn't even know when the notes begin and end, it only knows when to change pitch. The attenuator/amplifier has a gain knob which controls how much of
