MRG Synthesizer - VCO
Quality components, polypropylene timing capacitor, and precise tuning make this a small, simple, but high quality oscillator.
1V/Oct CV stable over more than 6 octaves, precise waves, PWM and SYNC input.
Output waves are square and sawtooth.
When no PWM input is present, the square wave has a duty cycle of 50% - this is actually configurable by an internal trimmer.
DIY-Kit-Type:
SMD-Kit-1. This is a Do-It-Yourself kit, not an assembled module. The kit includes all parts to build the module. All SMD parts are pre-soldered, only trough-hole parts to solder. For build guide, more info, videos etc. please check the buttons below.

MRG Synthesizers (mrgsynth) are handmade modules designed by Gianluca Guida in Cambridge, UK.
These modules are the result of my growing interest in music synthesis. MRG modules implement high quality classical building blocks of subtractive analog synthesis, with a focus on simplicity and versatility.
I approach synthesizers as technical instruments to explore that marvellous connection between mathematics and brain that we call music. Being technical instruments, MRG modules are designed to be conceptually simple (i.e., do one thing well), and their panels are meant to be concise, and somewhat dry and rational.
MRG's most common modules are part of the MRG 4HP series, a series of small, narrow but powerful and elegant modules.
