Peter,

Thanks alot for the quick reply.  I know that the Kenton box Hz/V jack is 
especially made for the CS series of synths (along with older Korg stuff), 
so it should be able to trigger it.  But, you do have to send in a trigger 
input into the EG trigger in to have it play, correct?  Either that  or put 
the VCO in "drone mode" (initial level up all the way) and let the OSC play 
continually.  Is this all correct or can I ignore the EG triiger in and 
just play the VCO in?  I think this is what you are saying, but I 
just wanted to clarify.  Thanks again.....

BTW, I got my CS15 for about $50 and even though I have never "sequenced" 
it it is one of my faves.  That random LFO through the great filters with 
external input going through it is just lovely.  Great for live stuff....
