Topic: Fireface UCX II: How to use its CV to control analog synthesizers?

Hi,

just got myself Fireface UCX II. In its manual there reads this:

"...synthesizers can be controlled via suitable software and the analog outputs of the audio interface."

So how do I do that? What software do I need?

I just got myself Cubase 11 Pro too, so it would be perfect if I could do this stuff in there... are there any plugins/VSTs for this? Maybe even free? (I'm poor now for a long time after those buys lol)

ps. my analog synths to where I would like to use this technique are: Korg MS-20 mini & Minilogue XD and Moog Subsequent 37 CV.

Hi, thanks for the many suggestions! I will look into it.

(I have Windows. And I'd love to get Ableton but it's not going to happen any time soon, as next I need to save money for a new desktop computer.)
