via this auction"The first widely available modular release of the Polivoks filter circuit is an officially clone built on the basis of original russian spareparts. So this first "analogue" module by the still young american inventor will be limited sooner or later and seems to be authentic. The 12dB Filter has parrallel lowpass and bandpass outputs sounding quite round. Against the original here you have CV-inputs as usual probably offering still some new sounds probably.
The filter circuit is identical to the original design and uses the exact same schematic as the Polivoks synthesizer as well as new old stock Soviet integrated circuits (KR140UD1208 and KR140UD608, not Western "equivalents"). A signal mixer and bipolar CV multiplier were added in order to use the filter within the modular realm but no other additions are present. This helps to preserve the unique and unstable sound character without compromising signal flow authenticity.
Backside doepfer compatible bus connector for +/-12V power consumption, CV1 bipolar and CV2 with attenuator going to cutoff, (2x) 6dB BP out and 12dB LP out, 2 x audio-In each with attenuator. Euro-rack module (for 3 rackspace systems), 10 HP, approx 3cm deep"
