we had two Korg Mono/Polys in our band, and we triggered both
Arp. Trig ins from a Roland TR-808. I think it worked with one, but not
with the other (all this is more than 20 years ago so I hope my memory
serves me well). For the one where it didn't worked we built some
kind of inverter with one transistor. This Mono/Poly also had
the modulated white noise problem, so it was a problem
of an early-build Mono/Poly.
