Could I plug the LFO cv out on the microbrute nto the expression input on a pedal?

Mainly I've heard some stuff about Cv damaging exp inputs. Are most pedals designed to accept both cv and exp?

Pedals typically expect voltages in the 0-3V or 0-5V range. Depending on the circuit they might just ignore voltages below 0V or above the max value they expect or you might damage something. A circuit smartly designed should just ignore voltages that are too high but some companies will decide not to add the cost of a few components for this kind of things.

Check what's the range of the microbrute outputs and check what your pedals expect...
