9.10.4. CV/Gate settings
This is where you select the electrical behavior for the Control Voltage connectors.
Here's a quick reference chart for these parameters.
Parameter Range/Values Description/Function
PITCH CV
Output
Volts per octave [*] Hertz
per volt [**] The two standards. Each uses a different MIDI note
reference
[*]0 Volt MIDI

5-12 Volts
Minimum = 0 Volts in all cases; maximum can be 5 to 12
volts.
Pitch Bend

Chooses how much the Pitch CV will vary when the Pitch
strip is used.
GATE CV
Output
S-trig, V-trig 5V, V-trig 12V
'˜Short/negative' trigger and two common types of
'˜Voltage/positive' triggers.
Now we'll take a look at each of those parameters.
9.10.4.1. Pitch CV Output
The various models of vintage gear respond differently to electricity. KeyStep 37 works well
with the most common types.
• (*) 1 Volt per octave '“ This is the standard used on most Eurorack modules and
on our very own Mini- and MicroBrute synthesizers.
• (**) Hertz per volt '“ This is the technology used by Korg and older Yamaha
synthesizers.
