Re: A few Pyscho LFO questions .

2009-06-27 by Richard Brewster

Hello and welcome to synth DIY!

There's no problem ordering from Elby Designs or from Ken Stone. It
helps if you can use PayPal. I buy a lot of DIY stuff with PayPal.

Yes, that power supply will work fine. It can be modified to put out
+/-12V or +/-15V. Most DIY synths use +/-15V supplies.

The Psycho LFO isn't normally used for generating audio, but for complex
control voltages. You'll need some Voltage Control Oscillators (VCO) at
some point. Those are the audio generators and can be frequency
controlled by other modules like the Psycho LFO.
