Sure, it makes sense to have a single ZO. With just one you can achieve traditional lin FM OR more extreme thru zero FM. You can use another VCO or an oscillating filter as the modulator. With two or more ZOs, you could do cross modulated thru zero FM, or start replicating DX-7is

Hi Moe, speaking of FM etc.: Does it make sense to run single ZO to achive the traditional lin-FM sounds? Or would it be better to have two or more in the system? Just asking for "future planning" ;-) :-) Michael. --- In The_Cyndustries_List@yahoogroups.com, "mate_stubb" wrote: >

Hello Fellow Synthesists, Hey Moe, thanks for the great first impressions review. I can see you had no trouble getting great FM from the Zeroscillator. Uploads?? Because you brought it up, I just want to comment about the location of the sine waveform on the morph knob. In the co

Nice summary, Moe. It squares with what I have experienced. The issue of morphing not quite matching the panel graphics I will explore a little tonight with the scope. FM will tend to exaggerate the response of these outputs, to my understanding, so I'll try with and without. The

Howdy Ingo! We've been shipping lots of Zeroscillators in Modcan and MOTM formats, and are just a few days away from shipping Euro fomat ZOs. The FracRac and Synthesizer Dotcom versions will ship after we get all of the Euro units shipped. We're working at full capacity already a

2006-01-25 by Ben Vehorn
If you need it to be analog, you could do this with the Doepfer quad EG and a mixer. Anything with end of stage trigger outputs works well. But stuff like this is done really well in digital, like the Encore UEG. Is there a reason it needs to be analog? I can't imagine needing a
2006-01-25 by mate_stubb
It depends on what you consider a stage. There are 7 settable levels, the 8th always being zero, and 8 rates between the levels. When you run in sequence mode, one of the rate pots is borrowed to allow you to have 8 levels. Moe http://www.stoogeindustries.com --- In The_Cyndustri

OK, after a full weekend of tweaking, here is a longer version of my first impressions of the ZO. 1) It is an excellent sounding 'normal' VCO. Very fat and has all of the features I would want in a VCO: SIN, SAW, SQR, TRI waveforms, PWM, SYNC, linear and expo FM. Plus it adds a s

Agreed, and well put: DX7 with analog warmth hits it on the head. The second demo shows a nasty side to it, too. Recall that there are no filters or anything other than a VCA post VCO in these patches (except a little reverb after the VCA). The timbral range is pretty amazing. No
2006-01-21 by John Loffink
Mike, Thanks for posting those. Your comparison matches what I hear with my own standard VCO Linear FM patch - while some FM characteristics are obtained, they are not nearly as pronounced as the ZerOscillator. The ZerOscillator gives DX7ish timbres with analog warmth. Nice! John

Two more demos - one more of the ZO (watch out, that one spits) that shows off the Quad outs along with some other cool stuff. The other file is a demo of the linear fm capabilities of two high quality but non-thru-zero vcos. This was patched as described in the ZO manual but usi
