3. Controls and indicators
1 Frequ.
This control sets the frequency of the VCLFO in a
range from 0.01 Hz (one cycle every 100 seconds) to
50 Hz (50 cycles a second).
H The actual LFO frequency is determined by a
combination of manual control and any vol-
tage patched into CV input
"
.
2 CV
Use Attenuator
2
to set the level of the voltage at CV
input " affecting the VCLFO frequency.
3 LED ... 5 LED
LEDs
3
to
5
indicate the frequency and voltage state
of the LFO signals at their respective outputs.
H If the LFO frequency is higher than about 15
to 20 Hz, our persistence of vision means
that the LEDs look permanently on.

les the VCLFO to be synchronised with another
oscillator.
This means that the waveforms instantly go to their
zero-point, and start from there (see Fig. 1). In the
case of the triangle and sine waves, that’s 0 V; with
the square wave it’s about +5 V and the sawtooth it’s
at half its maximum (about +3.5 V).
" CV
Socket
"
is the
voltage control input
for LFO fre-
quency. The voltage at this input is added to whatever
voltage is set on the manual control 1. The level of CV
input
"
can be adjusted with the Attenuator
2
.
§
This socket outputs a triangle wave, whose frequency
is indicated by LED 3 (amplitude roughly ± 5 V).
