MOTM-320
Voltage-Controlled LFO $259 assembled &
tested
The MOTM-320 is a full-featured Voltage-Controlled
Low-Frequency Oscillator (VC LFO). Unlike the crude LFOs found in
most synths, the MOTM-320 has 4 individual outputs plus a master
SHAPE control. This control voltage will shift the shapes of the
Pulse, Sine, and Saw outputs in unison. Both 1 volt/octave
(temperature compensated!) and variable FM (through a reversing
attenuator to go up or down) inputs are available.
Another unique feature is a SYNC input: a positive voltage will
reset all 4 waveforms. You can sync to just about any waveform: from
another LFO to EG's.
The MOTM-320 is not your standard cheap LFO: it has a full-blown
VCO core with discrete waveshaping based on the Moog modular and the
VCS3! The core has an astounding frequency range of 1 cycle in 30
minutes to about 2800Hz. A bi-color LED flashes at the LFO rate, and
can be set with a jumper to indicate 4 different ways!
Don't sacrifice a VCO as a full-featured LFO: get the MOTM-320
and let the modulations begin!
