Re: Vote for VCLFO design!

Hi Paul n All !

I'd go for the 2u design, more functionality that way .

Can't see what the "wave" knob does on your last proposal .

On the trimmer :  with one extra hole in the pcb, many multiturns 
could be accomodated, a single turn in the kit would do .  This way 
the builder has a choice .

I'd like to see two sync modes : one a hard reset, another one a 
reversal, like on the cem3340 .  Might open the door to lots of weird 
control waveforms . (Only do-able if the osc is based on a triangle i 
guess)

One more useful extra could be a gate input to start and stop the lfo 
(full cycles), same could be used for a one shot, maybe even giving 
counted bursts, with an external counter .

I'm not too crazy about "zero on top" controls .  Unless a generous 
zero deadband is included, one cannot be sure no voltage seeps 
through .  The alternative would be a separate input, switch or a 
pull-to-invert knob ...

Later .


Keep 'em oscillating :)
