LIZARD 1 - VCO

Picture
introduction

It can be said that the Lizard 1 consists of several integrated modules into one. It features a high-performance hybrid VCO with different modes of operation and 8 VCLFO's (Voltage Controlled Oscillators Low Frequence) completely analog.

     The heart of the VCO is a hybrid SAW core, running at a sampling rate of 1.5MHz! More than 30 times the frequency of the current market synthesizers.






VCLFO´s

The Lizard 1 has 8 fully independent VCLFO's. Each LFO has a signal output and a CV frequency control input. Has a frequency control pot and a wave symmetry control, allowing vary from a decreasing or negative SAW to Triangle (center position) to a positive SAW. See the photos below:

Picture
 

The frequency of VCLFO ranges from 0.01 Hz (100 seconds) to 10 Hz (0.1 seconds), when controlled only by the frequency pot.

VCO LIZARD

The sweep oscillator VCO is a hybrid of high performance and stability, ie, analog / digital. It commands an analog switcher that "choose" what sign will appear in the output OUTPUT.

It has several modes / operation settings. The first setting determines the number of STEPS (selections). Can be 4 or 8. 

The second configuration determines which source to be selected: If LEVEL or LFO.

In LEVEL mode you can "draw" the waveform of the VCO through the LEVEL pots above each LFO. This form will have 4 or 8 segments depending on the configuration of STEPS. Depending on the shape drawn, the harmonic distribution varies radically, allowing literally infinite number of sounds. The waveforms below were created with 8 STEPS.
Picture
 In LFO Mode, each LFO happens to be "sampled" in real time on their respective STEP, creating a "morphing wave" extremely rich, whose cycle is the result of setting frequencies and symmetries of LFO's, can last hours to return the same way!
In this configuration the pots LEVEL control the level of participation of each LFO in the "morphing wave". If set to 8 steps, all LFO's will be "sampled", and if 4 steps, only LFO's 1 to 4 will be sampled, freeing LFO's 5 to 8 for other applications within the modular! What does not negate the possibility of also using the outputs of the individual LFO's 1 to 4 for other applications.


SEQ Mode / VCO

SEQ / VCO switch changes the frequency range of the main VCO, allowing use as VCO (5Hz to 10kHz) or as an analog sequencer 4/8 steps (20 seconds to 120Hz). If set in the LEVEL Mode, CV's of each step will be programmed by LEVEL pots, using as a visual example waveforms above. If set to LFO, the signal from each LFO will be present at the exit to each step. See photo below:


Picture
WAVE Mode

              
In the WAVE mode, the first 4 steps will sample the signals present in wave inputs 1 to 4 ... If the Lizard is in VCO mode and into each Wave input an external VCO (eg Aether Oscillators) sound possibility becomes infinite .

If the SEQ mode, you can "switch" four external sequencers.
