FYI Monophonic Modules & Polyphonic cables

Polyphonic cables can be plugged into monophonic modules, in which case they use the first signal and throw away the rest. This is endlessly confusing to me, but at least it’s consistent!

It’s a little vexing because I always want to use Rampage for Envelopes, and when you plug in a polyphonic gate signal, you only get a mono envelope out.

I wonder whether the cable should get thinner? Be thick at the poly end and thin at the mono end?

In your patch, Macro Oscillator is only using channel 1 of its V/OCT input. You need to use VCV Split and make N copies of Macro Oscillator if you want that to work.
