Blacet Micro LFO 2430

We acquired Blacet research in 2019 after the unfortunate passing of its founder, John Blacet. We will continue to make Blacet products available and support the FRAC format. 

Best discussion forum for the frac format: muff's frac forum

“We have had many requests for a dedicated VCLFO. You will find this design to be extremely useful as well as compact. It's a truly powerful source of a large variety of waveforms--don't let the "simple" look fool you!

The normalization of an internal waveform to the "Rate CV" jack allows the "CV Attn/Wave Mod" pot to be used to modify the output waveforms from triangle to ramps and square to pulse. Plugging one of the outputs into the "Rate CV" jack provides a bunch of waves with non linear slopes!

Add an MX2040 Mixer Processor for a *really* versatile modulation setup!

Range: 80 S to 350 Hz (with DIP switch on PCA to select alternate Range of 15 M to 35 Hz)
LED: Output Indicator
Waveforms: Triangle, Square, Sine: +/-5V swing. 0-10V Triangle and 10-0V Inverted Triangle (especially useful for panning our VCAs)
Gate: Normalled to free run until a plug is inserted. Gate also resets all waveforms (+/-5V waveforms to 0, 0-10V waves to +5V)
Rate CV and CV Attenuator: The CV jack is normalled to an internal waveform so that the Attn pot will allow variable slewing of the normal output waves to ramps, variable pulse, etc).”

While stock lasts, kits will include the original Panasonic pots and Rean knobs. Once these are depleted we will be moving to Alpha pots and Chia Shin knobs. Because the flat d-shaft orientation, the old types and new types are NOT interchangaeable. 

If you use the old knobs on the new pots, or new knobs on the old pots, the pointer direction will be reversed 180 degrees from where John designed it.
