Hi, i was looking at purchasing a couple of moogerfooger controls, mainly the cp251 and the mf 107 freq box.

I was wondering though if they would work with my nord wave.

I see on the back of my nordwave i have a socket for a control pedel and a sustain pedal, soi was thinking it would be used there.

Not too sure about all this tough as i'm quite new to hardware synths

Many thanks

Tom

Not sure? DON'T DO IT!!! The Sustain isn't usefull at all, because it's just a switch!
Those controllers will give a voltage, so when feed into the ControlPedal input they will deliver this voltage. As soon as it reaches more then +5V it will damage your AD converter, the same as soon it falls below 0V... And what will be obtained when you are able to clipp these voltages? The overall volume will go rise and fall in the frequency given by those controllers...

Just let it be...
