Noise Toaster Lo-Fi Synth Build and Analysis: Part 4 – Low Frequency Oscillator (LFO) Circuit Analysis
Previously in this multi-part series on the Music from Outer Space Noise Toaster Lo-Fi Analog Synthesizer, we built and analyzed the main Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) circuit. The VCO can be modulated by the Attack Release Envelope Generator (AREG) and the Low Frequency Oscillator (LFO). In this blog post we will build and analyze the…

Noise Toaster Lo-Fi Synth Build and Analysis: Part 3 – CV Mixer, Expo. Converter, and VCO
The Noise Toaster is built around a ramp core analog oscillator which acts as the synth’s main signal source. The frequency can be modulated by control voltages from various sources – this makes it a Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO). In this article, we take an in-depth look at how the Noise Toaster’s VCO circuit functions.…
