CEM3340 VCO Available Now

CEM3340 VCO Now Available

Our CEM3340 VCO is a straight-forward, easy-to-build implementation of the CEM3340 voltage-controlled oscillator IC by Curtis Electromusic.  The circuit was featured in 2019/Issue 3 of Nuts & Volts magazine.  To make building and using the circuit convenient, we are offering boards and full kits in both bare oscillator board format or Eurorack format. Features Square, triangle, and sawtooth waves Coarse and fine-tuning controls Adjustable 1V/O CV input Mod, PW and hard-sync inputs Reverse-polarity protected Eurorack-style power input I/O connections on one...

Credit Card Oscillator -> Synthesizer

Business Card Oscillator is now a synthesizer

For Knobcon 2018 I decided I wanted to make an oscillator kit that would pair with the Business Card Sequencer I'd done a couple years earlier. I started out creating a basic oscillator, but there was room for more knobs, so I kept adding features until there wasn't any more room: Multiple wave shapesGlide2x LFOs (that can control pitch or amplitude or both)Attack/ReleaseLow-Pass FilterSample & Hold What I ended up with was more like a tiny full-blown synth than a simple oscillator....
