New Korg LFO Module for littleBits

Uploaded on Feb 19, 2015 littleBits Electronics

littleBits is asking people to vote for the new Korg LFO.  I'm guessing we will see it happen, but if you want to make sure and perhaps bump it to the front of their list for new modules, you might want to vote.

"Hey there! I’m Tatsuya Takahashi, chief analog engineer at Korg. The LFO or Low Frequency Oscillator module was designed alongside the littleBits Synth Kit but didn’t make it into the final kit configuration. We thought we would see if people would be interested in it, and thus have submitted it here to the bitLab!

The LFO is an oscillator module that allows you to make slow sweeping changes to sound parameters in the synth kit or with other littleBits modules. You can control the following parameters directly on the module:

-Rate/Frequency knob (speed of oscillation)
-Waveshape control knob (change the duty cycle of a pulse wave or morph a sawtooth to triangle to ramp waveform)
-Waveform selection switch (select triangle/saw or pulse waveform)

The input of the module controls the amplitude of the LFO. We’ve also included an LED on board to help show the rate of oscillation.

Need some circuit ideas? Watch the video to see the LFO in action!!"

Which received a silver prize of the contest monotron.
The idea of ​​an analog synth symphony, I have Tomita's influence, of course, than that "PS If there are 48 units monotron-3100 would" talk like a joke (circuit designer monotron Development Planning from interview with Mr.) or have inspired you.
Rather than quality or quantity or flow of work. But also seems like a bad way and I think a little now, use care not become so absolutely sampler.
Monotron currently owns two. PS-46 units remaining until 3100 (impossible)!"

コンテストの賞品である銀色のmonotronが届きました。
アナログシンセで交響楽という発想は、もちろん冨田氏の影響もあるのですが、それよりも「monotronが48台あればPS-3100になる!」という冗談のような話(­monotron開発企画・回路設計者さんのインタビュー記事より）にヒントを得ていたりします。
質より量というか、流れ作業というか。今思うと少し頭の悪いやり方のような気もしますが、サンプラーはどうしても使う気になれなかったので。
現在所有しているmonotronは2台。PS-3100まであと46台（無理）!"
