Cgs synth

Dear group,

I've got two questions:

-How can I make the AEP trigger from the Programmer/sequencer higher or wider?

This signal goes to a Low Pass Gate CV in, but can't totally open it.

-How do I connect LED's to the outputs of the Programmer/sequencer?

To make a simple vactrol panner,

I've connected one of the Programmer/sequencer's outputs to the anode of a LED

and the cathode to GROUND.

The higher the voltage at the output, the brighter the LED shines.

This happens only when the POT is around middle range,

and I would like to use the whole range.

Is it a good idea to use normal red or green or superbright white LED's

and Futurlec's PHOTOCELL3 (Light Resistance 50k, Dark Resistance 5000k),

as I still have these?

All help is greatly appreciated!
