Do you have any of the custom doepfer -> AS cabling? They're 
ribbon cables cut up and crossed over to allow the right 
voltages to go to the right pins...

If you have these, it's pretty easy, just make sure 0v (red line) is 
towards the bottom on the doepfer bus side, and that it goes 
into the AS module on the pins marked 0v. That'll get the other 
pins lined up as well.

If you don't have these, STOP right now. You'll need to make 
them.

I don't have time to pull apart my doepfer system at the moment, 
but if you need some pics of the ones I've made, I can take a 
few at some point in the next few days. If you're handy with a 
multimeter and you're careful, you could probably suss it out 
yourself though.

But that's the key, BE CAREFUL. Sending the wrong voltages 
to your modules WILL fry sensitive ICs like 3080s, TL072s, and 
especially the BC transistors, I know from unfortunate 
experience!
