I recently got an Arturia Beatstep for its control voltage output and wondered if anyone here has had luck using one to control a Minitaur.

Would there be any real harm in trying this out, or is there someth...

Is it possible (or advisable) to run an audio signal through the cv inputs on the back of the Minitaur? I thought I'd ask first, just in case it could cause any damage...

A belated update, just in case anyone else has had this problem. I exchanged a few emails with tech support at Moog and it turned out the main serial cable inside the synth had become loose. I had to open the thing up and reconnect it, but it falls out easily and you really have to jam it in to make...
