This is what dorpfer is promissing by the beginning of '96: Standard VCO 4 waveforms (square w/var and mod. pulsewidth, saw, tri, sin), Freq range 1Hz-5kHz HighEnd VCO similar as above but w/lin FM input, optimized waveforms and soft-sync (autumn '95) Dual Ring Modulator Audio Divider (Audio IN, 4 sub-octaves adjustable) VCWP (voltage contolled waveform processor) Noise/Random Module white, red/blue noise, s&h Ext. Input/Envelope Follower VCF1 24db Low-pass w/Moog principles, resonant, selected transistors only VCF2 12dB Multimode Filter (low, band, high and notch), resonant (august) built w/CEM3320 VCF3 24dB Low-pass w/Oberheim principles, resonant (autumn '95) w/CEM3320 VCF4 24dB High-pass, resonant (end '95) w/CEM3320 VCP (voltage controlled phaser) resonant (autumn) Resonance Filter Bank 4-5 band pass filters w/resonance (beginning '96) Linear VCA/Log. VCA both build w/CEM3381, CEM3382 Dual low cost VCA (autumn) Mixer 4 IN (audio or gate) ADSR env. gen., gate IN, retrig IN, 3 time frames LFO 5 waveforms (tri, squ, up & down ramp, sin), timeframe from audio (5kHz up to sev. minutes!!!!) Shepard Generator (HA!) beginning of 1996 Dual S6H module Dual VCS (volt. cont. switches) Quad sequential switch Clock Divider Clock Sequencer Dual Trigger Delay Quad Trigger Inverter Dual Slew Limiter Quad Voltage Inverter 8-times (or 2 times 4) Multiplier Midi2CV/Sync Interface (1-ch) (autumn) Midi2CV/Sync Interface (12-ch) (autumn) > Is anyone else making modular gear besides these 2 companies and > some individuals? > > VCOs > > 1.
