POWER
Plug one end of the supplied AC cord into the standard IEC power connector on the Subsequent 25
left-side panel. Plug the other end into an AC outlet. The Subsequent 25 universal power supply will
operate with 50 or 60Hz AC power sources ranging from 100 to 240 volts. Flip on the power switch
located next to the power connector.
NOTE: Your Subsequent 25 is an analog instrument and should be allowed at least 60 seconds to warm up before
use. In cases where it has been left in a cold car overnight, for example, it may take as long as 10 minutes before
oscillator tuning has stabilized. Do not operate Subsequent 25 in direct sunlight.
AUDIO OUT
With the MASTER VOLUME turned all the way down, plug one end of a 1/4” instrument cable into the
unbalanced Subsequent 25 AUDIO OUT jack and the other end into an amplified speaker or mixing
console input. Adjust the level by slowly turning the MASTER VOLUME knob clockwise while playing
the keyboard.
If you’ll be using headphones, plug them into the headphones jack (on the front panel’s bottom-right
corner) with HEADPHONE VOLUME turned all the way down. Adjust the level by slowly turning the
HEADPHONE VOLUME knob clockwise while playing the keyboard. Note that MASTER VOLUME must
be turned up as well.
EXTERNAL AUDIO IN
Located just above the AUDIO OUT jack, the jack labeled EXT IN allows Subsequent 25 to shape and
filter external sounds. This is an unbalanced input that accepts a line-level signal. You can adjust the
audio level using Shift mode (see page 26) or the plug-in editor.
NOTE: You must press a key to pass external audio through the Subsequent 25 electronics. You also can use a
Moog FS-1 footswitch, or any 1/4” cable to open the gate. Simply connect to the 1/4” KB GATE jack.
USB
To use Subsequent 25 with a computer, connect one end of a USB cable to the Subsequent 25 USB
port and the other end to an available USB port on your computer. Subsequent 25 supports MIDI I/O
over USB, but not audio data.
MIDI
Using Subsequent 25 with an external MIDI device requires one or two MIDI cables. To use Subsequent
25 as a MIDI controller, connect one end of a MIDI cable to the Subsequent 25 MIDI OUT jack and the
other end to another device’s MIDI IN jack.
To control Subsequent 25 from an external MIDI controller, connect one end of a MIDI cable to the
Subsequent 25 MIDI IN jack and the other end to an external controller’s MIDI OUT jack. By default,
Subsequent 25 is set to transmit and receive MIDI data on MIDI Channel 1.
CONTROL VOLTAGE IN
The PITCH CV, FILTER CV, and VOL CV inputs each accepts an expression pedal (such as the Moog EP-2)
or a control voltage signal from 0 to +5 volts. If you connect an expression pedal to VOL CV, you can
use your foot to control the Subsequent 25 output level. If you connect an expression pedal to FILTER
CV, you can sweep the Filter Cutoff frequency in the same manner. The PITCH CV input is calibrated so
that a one-volt change in the control voltage will result in a one-octave change in frequency.
The KB GATE input accepts a +5 volt signal, which causes the Subsequent 25 Envelopes to trigger.
