Syntaur has introduced the CVP-100 Control Voltage Pedal – a pedal that you can patch into synths that accept control voltages to add control of volume, filter sweeps and more:
Similar to the classic Moog Model 1120 pedal, the Syntaur CVP-100 pedal is a control-voltage (CV) source for use with analog synthesizers. It generates a voltage, the level of which is controlled by the pedal, and by plugging the 1/4-inch phone plug into a CV input of a synthesizer, you can control filter sweeps, volume, pitch, etc. This sturdy pedal is a great expressive tool for use with your vintage synths!
Here’s a partial list of synths that the Syntaur CVP-100 pedal is compatible with:
- Arp Odyssey, Pedal
- Korg MS-10, MS-20, any CV inputs
- Moog Minimoog, any of the 3 External Control Inputs (Loudness, Filter, Oscillator)
- Moog Minimoog Voyager, any of the Control Inputs
- Oberheim Matrix 12, Pedal Input 1 & 2
- Roland Juno-6, VCF Control
- Roland Juno-60, VCF Control
- Sequential Circuits Pro-One, Filter CV In
- Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 & Prophet 10, Control Voltage In
- Yamaha CS5, Control Volt In
- Yamaha CS40M, Filter Foot Control
- Any modular synthesizer
The Syntaur CVP-100 Control Voltage Pedal is available for $59.95 at the Syntaur site.

Ummm…Compatible with Yamaha CS-5? I don’t see a CV input on the back of the CS-5 other than the CV in that I assume is to control the oscillator. However, on the CS-10, the input is labeled “Key IN”. Maybe they are different? There is a pedal input on the CS-30 to control the volume, not sure it is a CV IN type.
“i dont see a cv input .. other then a cv in”
dont assume, read manuals.
Don ‘t you have something specific and useful to contribute?
The labeling of the Cv inputs I was indicating come FROM THE MANUAL
After comparing the info on CS-5, 10, 15 and 30, they all have the same CV in meant to control the oscillator(s), but with a different label for CS-5. So if the Syntaur works for CS-5, it should work the same for the other ones. I have not been able to find the specs for the pedal input on my CS-30
I wish the people at Syntaur the best of luck… but why buy this for $60 instead of the Moog EP-2 expression pedal for $40? Do they do the same thing?
The difference is that the EP-2 is an expression pedal (just a potentiometer inside a pedal) while the syntaur pedal actually generates cv.
What about MS 20 mini w/ 1/8 ” adapter?
Should work!
I’ve a fan of Syntaur, having bought several parts from them, but this seems like a waste. You don’t need a powered pedal for any of the input jacks listed form keyboards. Now for modulars the voltage could be neat.
You should work anywhere a synth has Cv in.
If you plug a standard expression pedal into a cv in jack it’s not gonna do anything.
was looking for something exactly like this a few months ago for use with my SCI prophet 600 – the cheapest options were in the $200 range. went with a kenton pro solo mkii, which can convert pedal input to CV output – worked well, but decided it wasn’t worth the $200 either. 😛
That’s great model to use of 100 control voltage pedal
