"For your consideration is this 100% faithfull VCS3 recreation that has been professionally built by RAMCUR who built The Hornet Modular with PIN Electronics from a few years ago. I also recently got it fully modded by Z3 Sound with a custom MIDI input box.
The main parts of this synth are from a kit from Germany's The Cloney Project. As you can see in the pictures, we upgraded a number of parts (solid shaft CTS pots all around being a significant upgrade to the feel and longevity) with premium parts as well as a number of period correct electronic parts where needed in the audio path. We also used the same spring reverb tank, meter and joystick pots that EMS used in their original design. Furthermore, the matrix is a custom Swiss made 16x16 Ghielmetti which is far superior than the the one that came with the kit. In fact, Ghielmetti make the best patch matrixes in the world. This synth sounds and feels amazing, it was built with no expenses spared.
Aside from the main build, here are the mods that were added:
1. Hi/lo Range Switchable on all OSC (3x switches, 2-pos)
2. OSC Variable Sync via pot on all (3x 10KL pots)
3. Voltage Controlled Shape on all OSC via patch points (3x jacks)
4. Voltage Controlled Filter Response (1x jack)
4. Filter slew / unslew (1x switch, 2-pos)
5. Filter 24db / 30db (1x switch, 2-pos)
6. Attack / Decay x10 (1x switch, 2-pos)
7. Trapezoid polarity switch (1x switch, 2-pos)
8. Variable Portamento (2x jacks + 10KL pot)
9. Custom MIDI / Eurorack Input Box (via Cinch Jones)
10. Sustained / Transient External Gate (via MIDI box)
11. Variable Portamento (via MIDI box)"
