It is rumored that Doepfer will probably show the prototype of a
through-zero Quadrature VCO at the NAMM :-)

Best wishes
Dieter Doepfer

P.S. The QVCO is planned as an extension for the A-126 frequency shifter but
can be used as a normal VCO as well.
So far I did not mention this module as the prototype is not yet running (we
expect the prototype pc boards next week). I'm a bit conservative with
announcements of modules that did not yet reach the prototype state. So I
cannot promise anything before the prototype is assembled. Of course I will
keep you informed and may be I will be able to do some audio examples before
NAMM.

And to reveal another "secret": A switched capacitor filter module (low
pass) with 30/60dB slope (switch for 30/60dB) will probably be shown at the
NAMM as well. But the same comments are valid as for the QVCO (let's wait
for the prototype).

>
> Features Include:
>
> Through-zero Linear FM Operation. AC & DC Linear FM Inputs with
> 4-Quadrant Dynamic Depth VCA. Separate Outputs for All Traditional
> Waveforms.
> Voltage Controlled Bi-Phasic Waveform Morphing in Four-Phase Quadrature.
> Variable Synch. Precision Ten-Turn Tuning Knob
> Switchable Linear Bias Modulation Depth and Polarity LEDs.
> Unique Time Reversal Input!
> What does all this mean It means incredibly rich and alive sonic
> textures are now available to you!
> It means that brass, woodwinds, percussion and exotic electronic mayhem
> are just a knob-twist away without need of filtering or other spectral
> post-processing!
> It means a whole new, exciting way of synthesizing sound on your modular!
> Advanced engineering and the very latest in exotic semiconductors enable
> the amazing Zeroscillator to create classic (digital) Linear FM
> Synthesis on your modular with reliable, all-analog ("Look Ma, no
> aliasing!") circuitry.
>
> Physically, the Zeroscillator's design and build quality are
> stratospheric. The finest components are employed using high-quality
> 4-layer circuit boards, NKK Switches and Switchcraft connectors. All
> chips are in military-grade type gold sockets, and gold connectors are
> used internally for years of trouble-free maintainance.
> Sonically, Zeroscillators produce crystaline FM textures without the
> assorted noises and grit of digital. Zeroscillators increase the
> sophistication of your music because each use is a delightful journey
> into undiscovered, exciting new dimensions!
> Learn for yourself what the "Through-Zero" & "Dynamic Linear FM" buzz
> is all about using actual analog synthesizers. Sieze this opportunity
> to invigorate your music with this breakthrough in electronic
> technology by equipping yourself with exciting new Zeroscillators today!
