Product information "Doepfer A-110-1 Standard VCO"
The standard VCO provides two CV inputs for pitch, an octave switch, four waveforms with separate outputs, pulse width modulation and hard sync. After the pre-heating time the VCO is stable in a range of 3.5 octaves. A basic VCO "workhorse" without many gadgets.
The A-110-1's frequency is set with a five-octave rotary switch and a tune control. For frequency modulation tow CV inputs are used, one with a characteristic of 1V/octave and the other with an attenuator for adjusting modulation depth. In addition the module is equipped with a Sync input for hard oscillator synchronisation.
It generates the waveforms sawtooth, pulse, triangle and sine. Due to a control and two CV inputs the pulse width is variable from 0% to 100%, i.e. in maximum positions the signal will be cancelled.
WIth a long trajectory building synths, MIDI keyboards and designing bespoke devices for music pioneers Kraftwerk, Dieter Doepfer decided to design his own modular synthesizer in 1995 based on existing electrical and mechanical specifications of lab equipment he used during his years at university. The official presentation of the system at 1996 Frankfurt Musikmesse caught everyone by surprise and created lots of interest. After Doepfer published the specifications on his website, many instrument designers and engineers saw the potential of the new Eurorack format. Doepfer continues expanding their catalog of over 200 modules (and counting), operating from their modest offices in the outskirts of Munich.
