Korg CV out to ARP CV in, Korg Gate out to ARP CV Gate or Trigger in. I'm not familiar with the Sigma but the ARP needs a 1 volt per octave CV and a +5 volt Trigger or Gate.

Found this on the Sound-on-Sound RetroZone article on the Sigma, which you should consider:


Don't forget that the Sigma works to the Hz/Volts control voltage standard, not the more common 1V-per-octave standard (as mentioned in the main text). Bear this in mind if you're hoping to hook it up to a MIDI-CV converter.
