- PA0 is a voltage controlled oscillator VCO module with a triangle phase animator, providing adjustable phase shift, through zero PM, and more! This is a brief demo to show the basic functionailty. More info at www.westonaudio.com/pa0.html
wow, sounds great.
This is some black magic circuit design
This is a great sounding oscillator! Now I want my cookie... 😂
🍪! :D
Amazing work Devin! Cant wait to put this through some nice filter, it will be amazing!
great as always
Just HUGE SOUNDS OUT OF THIS FUCKER! Also just totally crispy, razor sharp stuff! I want t aware of this guy when I should have been, I gotta sell a rather limp oscillator or two off and get this thing, just exactly what a killer machine should sound like🔥🐉🔥

Just ordered this interesting module on your Webshop. I do appreciate that you don't cram all the features into a narrow HP module. It gives me proper access to the knobs and I can turn them without bumping too much against the adjacent ones. Just a quick dumb question, are you feeding the outputs to a VCA/EG in the sound examples? I guess it's obvious ..
Thank you for the order! You got the last one of the first run :). In the video yes the 2 signals shown on the Mordax Data are being fed roughly 50/50 to a L1 mixer/VCA being triggered just by a basic AR envelope, for interest :)
Nice! Have you considered doing a filter? I feel like you could do some interesting filter designs. Picture this.... Time Segment... _Filter!_ Each slider could represent a pole. Or something, I'm no electrical engineer.
Ever heard of the Blue Lantern Millipede? It has 4 poles with on/off switches for three of them. Each pole has a knob that adjusts the phase of the pole. I got a mk. 2 version recently and wish more people ran with that idea! Everyone is busy releasing multimode stereo filters. Basically, I create my own filter type: BP, LP, HP, Notch and everything in between. It only has 4 poles so it's a bit limited. No crazy comb filters or anything. Still, it's super fun.
The Rossum Morpheus is kinda similar but digital and waaay more complex. Its specialty is filter morphing using 14 poles. Bizarre but entirely unique.
That's an interesting idea! Of course, I have considering doing a lot of different types of modules... the cue is filling all the time! But I always appreciate new cool ideas! Lots of people want cool stereo stuff for sure, in fact I think the next thing I do might just have to be something stereo based...
@@westonprecisionaudio my vote for your own take on VCF... Im sure you can bring some nice ideas to the table!
sounds great
Thank you!
@@westonprecisionaudio will try to get my hands on
Meoow
This looks great! Will DIY options be available?
Not sure on that yet, but there will be some more DIY stuff in the future of some kind, I promise :)
Sounds so solid! Great work! Any chance you’ll sell more modules as dyi/ pcb/panel? I really enjoyed building the AD110.
Thank you! Definitely possible I will spin this as DIY!
🙏 that would be amazing! I’d love to have more of your modules
@@westonprecisionaudio I would buy this in DIY for sure! Such a cool idea.
Another taker for a DIY option here!
@@neilfisher9710 @Matthew Nefstead would those who would like to do this DIY be interested in a full SMT build (0603)? There are a couple of TSSOP chips but most are SOIC.
Interresting oscillator design and good sounding.
What is the lowest frequency it can run at? Down in LFO territory?
Thanks! It doesn't have a dedicated LFO switch but if you put the FM index knob really close to zero (middle) it can run very slow and could be used as LFO I think. Of course it will not track v/oct very well with index almost zero but that probably doesn't matter for an LFO :}
@@westonprecisionaudio Thanks for the answer. For LFO that is okay yes :) More interresting with the quadrature output for LFO duties.
I take it the phase animated side could be used with any incoming signal with a few modifications?
Well, the actually phase animator is quite specific in that it takes a triangle and produces a phase shifted triangle. All the other phase shifted waves are derivatives, or side signals produced by that circuit. You could feed other waves into the the phase animator but it would make strange results I think!
@@westonprecisionaudio Is it possible to just turn the internal oscillator way down to LFO rates and then use the CV input to the phase animator to create derivative waveforms?
edit: very cool btw
@@robertsyrett1992 The phase animator is just operating in time, so zero in waves equals zero out, so that wouldn't work. But, I do kind of like your idea of making a mod (or maybe feature later on on a design revision!) to feed an outside wave into the phase animator. It would make kind of a cool/weird variable wave folding thing
@@westonprecisionaudio a cool/weird variable wave folding thing is exactly what I dream about late at night. I love finding out how different companies have implemented phase modulation in analogue technology and PAO seems unique in its mechanism, especially as it relates to the derivative waveforms. Cheers!
@@robertsyrett1992 I appreciate the questions too because sometimes people who use this stuff make me think of ideas for features I hadn't thought of before!
all CEM3340 VCOs sound so boring compared to VCOs like this
