actually, finding an LFO with PWM or FM  or even bi-polar VC isn't so easy. Only a few LFOs have PWM, it's weird, the MS50 LFO has it, and the MOTM LFO, what else?
Personally  switching back and forth from LFO to VCO live is something I often do, a gated switch for it would even be cool, the octave switch I really don't think I need either, I don't use it on the few VCOs that have it.

best,
phil

Hi Phil and Brad,
I think we have a very different kind of using oscillators and making music.
I'm not a fan of uncontrollable noise but more of musical oscillators with a
special timbre.
You are right concerning the modulation options (also the Model 10 has 
interesting features
using it as an LFO, or the D_LFO from Cwejman), but using the Model 15 live
patching a new sound without tuning the oscillators an octave up or down is
for me more helpful than a PWM-option using it as an LFO.
I think both side are right, relating to the sounds you will create.
best regards
Axel

in agreement about the lack of LFOs with PWM... i was looking for just
that very thing in eurorack format and gave up. 

a full-featured VCO that can turn into a full-featured LFO at the flip
of a switch is a good thing. there's a lack of complex LFOs.

how low can the model 15 go using its CV inputs?

The Ken Stone / Elby  Super Psycho LFO will be out in Eurorack format 
soon (Panther series)
