Re: CV/gate quandary...

The TASCAM DB25 pinout is for balanced audio connections, so you would end up with eight TRS outputs if you use "off the shelf" DB25 to 1/4" plug cables.

Here is information on the standard:

To properly use a DB25 connector for CV and trigger outputs you would indeed need a special cable.  However, we could easily arrange to have some speciality cable companies such as Redco supply a specific Cirklon breakout cable.  That way people could order it directly.  Redco is in the USA but I'm sure a similar company could be found in the UK and the same arrangements made.
