lfo on a breadboard
fun with breadboards:
electronic circuits tend to be really simple when it comes to basic applications. like the simple LFO found at machines.hyperreal.org/categories/DIY/schematics/LFO.circuit.txt. a repetetive modulation is just one of the most desired effects, and one never got enough sources to create tremolos, vibratos or slow rising sweeps. unlike modern ‘closed’ synthesizers where the modulation matrix is limited by whatever is built in, the analog/modular domain offers plenty of modulation inputs (aka CV). time to build one, two, many LFOs ;)
even laymen could tell: it’s really no big deal to build your own. however, i kind of like the idea if you need a simple circuit just to hook up on a breadboard and be ready to rumble. nuf said. if you’re using analog gear and know little bout electronics, get yourself a breadboard and a couple of standard electronic parts! now, see the thingy in action:
b-funk and raumagent alpha present the breadboard bricolage:
FYI: the breadboard LFO is modulating a DIY SSM2044 VCF. the roland MC-202 is acting as an oscillator only (filter & envelope are inactive).
