The Simple LFO is a… simple LFO module for your Eurorack system.
Two waveforms available: Triangle and Square wave. Adjustable amplitude and Low/High range switch.
It’s easy to build, easy to understand and maintain. Only easy-to-find through-hole components.

Simple LFO 1.3
I released a new update of the Simple LFO, now in version 1.3.
The update is mostly about how the LED blinks.

MFOS Weird Sound Generator in SMT
The SMT adaptation was a hobby project. The MFOS designs are the property of SynthCube.
If you want to buy PCB for the MFOS synths, please visit musicfromouterspace.com
Here comes my next conversion of Ray’s classic analog synthesizer, the Weird Sound Generator!
This is the same process as for my previous SMT/Eurorack conversion of the Sound Lab Mini-Synth. The circuit is identical to the original, including component references.
Simple LFO – LTSpice simulation
Just a quick update on the Simple LFO circuit. I was playing with LTSpice for some forthcoming modules when I decided to simulate the Simple LFO. The idea was to compare the simulation to a real working circuit.

Simple LFO update 1.1
New revision for the Simple LFO. It’s mostly a slight improvement of the output stage.
I added an buffering opamp on the output. Now, the output load doesn’t affect and modify anymore the signal frequency.

New modules coming, fresh panels from FPE
While I’m still designing my DS8 drum clone, I’m preparing some new modules. In fact, they are designed as build bricks for the drum module.
I made a simple square and triangle LFO, a simple AR Envelope Generator and a 3 way mono mixer.
In the meanwhile, I tried for the very first time the Front Panel Express service (Schaeffer AG actually here in Europe), and I just received my first panels yesterday.
I have to say 2 things: first, their service is not cheap at all. But, wow! I’m really happy with the result! What a nice and professional result! Check it out:
It’s absolutely brilliant! If it wasn’t the price, I would definitely recommend their service!
They are 2mm thick black anodised aluminium panels. Texts and drawings are raw cuts with no white infills. Still, the result is very good: it’s perfectly readable.
Edges can be a bit rough though. Anodised aluminium doesn’t catch finger prints. (PMA glass does it a lot!) At 2mm thick, the panels are really stiff. Surface is pretty hard to scratch.
All in all, I’m very pleased.
If everything goes nicely, I will build several of these and sell ’em as separate simple modules. Keep in touch!
Next to come are an impact gen (actually a clone of a 606 bass drum), and probably the noise generator.
