Ahead of Superbooth 2019, Erica Synths has introduced the Fusion VCO V2, a unique analog design that features vacuum tube overdrive.
Here’s what they have to say about it:
The core of the module is highly stable AS3340-based VCO with three simultaneously available waveforms, transistor-based suboscillator and detune function – two BBD delay lines that make frequency shifter that is mixed back to the principal oscillator in order to emulate two detuned VCOs.
Tube crunch – distinct tube overdrive – is added on the top of the mix. Furthermore, Audio input mixes an external audio signal with the principal oscillator which results in crazy sonic experience.
Features:
- Full analog design
- Great tracking over 8 octave range
- Detune function for thickening the sound
- -1 oct transistor based suboscillator
- Tube overdrive circuit
- External audio input
- VCO synchronization
- Simultaneous waveform outputs
Pricing and Availability
The Fusion VCO V2 is available now for €300.00.
Looks like a 12 volt plate voltage design.
Yeah, a total joke if you know anything about tubes and their B+ voltge requirements. As a tube enthusiast, myself, I wouldn’t want a hot one anywhere near a patch cable or my hands. Erica really needs to look into the In-N-Out Burger model. Way too many choices hurting the brand. It is confusing and they seemingly discontinue things at random.
sounds amazing holy crap. is that unfiltered, straight out from the unit?? madness
There is a lot to chew on there…
