Have just finished putting this module together and calibrating it as per instructions, it works flawless through the octave range from C1 - C8 i couldn't hear C9 lol. I measured every component in the build to get nearly spot on tolerances in relation to the schematic. It works really well. Great design. 😁👍👌
That's fantastic news! I'm glad to hear that you've successfully assembled and calibrated the module. It's always rewarding to see our designs come to life and perform as intended. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience. Your feedback is invaluable.
Briliant I already started build one from your PCB im electronic engineer and is nice hobby to build your own eurorack is alot of fun. And a lot cheeper like buy already built modules. Thank you!
Congratulations on your 1st build. Next could be a filter. 3320 VCF could be a nice choice next to the 3340 VCO. Later, you could add a VCA and envelope generators and create a basic analog subtractive synth.
@@InterplainMusic Thats not how I would use it. You can connect them all to a mixer and use it like selector. Put the vol up only for the wave form you would like to use for example. Best is to have more than 1 VCO and have them in different tuning. So, you can mix them and create thick, layered sounds. Or, you can modulate VCOs with one and other and create some sort of an FM synth.
Heya, I'm looking into this vco for my first modular build, i know my way around a bit of electronics, but the BOM I can find for these modules is missing some details for the components, and there are some chips I can't seem to find. Do you have a more detailed BOM after we buy the pcbs or can you provide a kit with components and pcbs? otherwise awesome job
Currently i dont offer ful kit for the VCO but i will have partial kits soon. I would not recommend this for the 1st build but with some care it can be done. You can find the documents here: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1waEjChsNmvPlOuYwVEvbVCHhxbLIWAdV?usp=sharing
i have alredy given a look at those documents and you dont specify resistor tolerances and power for example. also i searched for the 3340 in my usual suplier and i cant find it. i have done a few eletronics projects so far, not many analog stuff tho thanks for the help
You can get the documents here: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1waEjChsNmvPlOuYwVEvbVCHhxbLIWAdV?usp=sharing If you still need assistance please email gurugarasynth@gmail.com
VCA section works the opposite of a traditional VCA module. When you apply a voltage or use the audio detection section to generate voltage it makes the volume go down. You can use trigger or gate but it might cause glitches due to the sharp corners of the trigger/gate pulse.
Currently there are no step by step guides for any of the projects. Projects can be supplied with party list and schematic. I wouldn't advise this as a 1st project. If you want to start DIY and learn circuit building, you can start with 4024 sub oscillator, 3360 VCA or 3320 ADSR. Build service is also available so you can order modules fully build and calibrated.
Sub oscillator works with another oscillator. It generates sub octave square wave depending on the frequency of the other oscillator. So, it cannot generate the sub octave with a kick drum sound.
yes, I send the partlist and schematic to the buyers via email. This is an old version of the VCO. The new version has a simple tri to sine converter...
hi there!! luvly sounding stuff! dya still have some pcb/panel of the filter available? and mostly, is the filter through hole or smd? please let me know :)
