Hi,
The trigger input must be above +5V .  A typical audio signal  is much lower in voltage, and is an AC bipolar ( +/- )  voltage. So an audio signal is too smallto work as a trigger. Unless you amplify it some way.

     Hello brothers!

Anybody have a wav file of a suitable click track for the trigger input?

I have tried a few, but no luck yet...

Thanks

Thanks Karl

I have actually got a modular synth sitting next door wanting to spit out cvs!

I've managed to trigger gates at the individual inputs so far but not that trig in. 

I'm going to up the voltage to 8v and report back.

Many thanks. I'm amazed how often the xpander simply blows any other synth in the vicinity out the water sound wise.
