3. Controls and indicators

1

Frequ.

This control sets the frequency of the VCLFO in a
range from 0.01 Hz (one cycle every 100 seconds) to
50 Hz (50 cycles a second).

H

The actual LFO frequency is determined by a
combination of manual control and any vol-
tage patched into CV input " .

2

CV

Use Attenuator 2 to set the level of the voltage at CV
input " affecting the VCLFO frequency.

3

LED ... 5 LED

LEDs 3 to 5 indicate the frequency and voltage state
of the LFO signals at their respective outputs.

H

If the LFO frequency is higher than about 15
to 20 Hz, our persistence of vision means
that the LEDs look permanently on.

4. In- / Outputs

!

Reset

A gate pulse entering the reset input socket ! enab-
les the VCLFO to be synchronised with another
oscillator.

This means that the waveforms instantly go to their
zero-point, and start from there (see Fig. 1). In the
case of the triangle and sine waves, that’s 0 V; with
the square wave it’s about +5 V and the sawtooth it’s
at half its maximum (about +3.5 V).

"

CV

Socket " is the voltage control input for LFO fre-
quency. The voltage at this input is added to whatever
voltage is set on the manual control 1. The level of CV
input " can be adjusted with the Attenuator 2.

§

This socket outputs a triangle wave, whose frequency
is indicated by LED 3 (amplitude roughly

± 5 V).
