There seem to be quite a few MIDI-to-CV and CV-to-MIDI converters that only work with 5 V, maybe +/-5 V. I get the impression that full +/-10 V and +/-15 V or even +/-18 V systems are getting more and more rare these days.


Roland used to be 12-15V trigger, at least sort of - the original 
System-100 only reaches 1/3 envelope level when 5V triggered. FWIW, I 
have 12-to-5V trig conversion built into that Roland to Korg converter I 
made some time ago, it would not be that hard to add 5-to-12V.
