I would suggest getting a manual pushbutton gate module. Doepfer makes the A-164-1 manual gate module and we ( www.synthwerks.com ) make a couple of modules that will do this quite easily (the MG-1, FST-1T, or any of our FSR modules) plus give you some other useful functions. That way uoi can use these functions with more than the A-140. Almost all of our modules connect to the internal Doepfer Gate bus (with jumpers on the PCB) so no cable is even needed.
