Doepfer A-188-9 High Speed VCO

Doepfer A-188-9 High Speed VCOModule A 188 9 is a so called high speed VCO that tracks prefectly to the 1V oct scale in the frequency range of about 15kHz 500 kHz. The main application is the exact drive of BBD modules (A 188 1 2) to generate sounds realized by means of the so called Karplus Strong synthesis. But even in cooperation with other modules featuring high speed inputs (e. g. digital noise, delay, frequency divider) the A 188 9 makes sense. In principle the module is

but interpolation in the frequency and transform dimensions were set at note-on and remained static for the remainder of the note

Power: 125mA @ +12V / 32mA @ -12V

Auxiliary sends

ES-40 or ES-6 module

and was designed to work with any type of patch

pulse and square wave shapes before passing through the built in output VCA for on board level control

The ‘PE-1’ is inspired by the EQ circuits used in early ‘Portastudio’ type 4 track tape mixers

sweet sound of the classic Korg Mono/Poly

you can use the PIPE as a powerful FX processor for an external signal as a synth

A monophonic digital oscillator with three waveforms and an analog noise generator are available for internal synthesis

or even add swing to get your groove going
