Ok, thanks for the enlightment Florian.
Never had any moog synths, so I am not familiar with the s-trigger
inputs.

Best regards,
Bakis.

No. S-trigger is simply what the keys of the keyboard do: there are two 
"rails" that are shortened (can be seen very good in the schematics of 
most monophonic moog-synths). You can connect a simple foot switch pedal

to a s-trigger input, and pressing the foot pedal will trigger the last 
played note.

You are wrong ;-)

The arp-in reacts on a negative slope of a trigger somehow too, but 
depending on the output of the feeding source gear retriggering can 
happen with the positive slope.
