Hello Natalia,

Unlike the MS-10 the MonoPoly uses V/Oct and positive Gate.

I could imagine, that the gate voltage is too low.

@Valerio: What happens, if you do the followgin:
* Connect only the CV but don't plug the Gate cable into the Monopoly. * 
Then press and hold a key on the keyboard.
* Then press play in Logic.
Does the pitch now follow the pitches of the sequence in Logic?
