The RS-95e oscillator is a premium, British sounding VCO with wave-shaping possibilities. It has a new front panel design with elongated holes.
It is based on the RS-90 but has more features, predominantly a very special sine wave.
The RS-95e presented here is technically identical but instead a normal frequency control it features a gorgeous, lockable potentiometer with ten turns. This allows precise fine tune control and adds the look of an EMS synthesiser to the VCO.
The module has three audio outputs: pulse, triangle and sine.
The upper shape control affects the pulse width. The lower shape control not only morphs from a falling sawtooth over triangle to a rising saw (or ramp) but simultaneously alters the sine wave and produces a kind of smoothed, softer sawtooth. Additionally the saw/sine output is a CV-INPUT for the symmetry of the sine. Very extraordinary feature that all are voltage controllable.
The oscillator sync is "soft" and not only reacts to square waves but works with all waveforms.
The frequency control has three switchable modes:
- STD (standard) with a range of two octaves.
- 2 is two octaves lower than STD.
- WIDE mode gives a range from 0.3 Hz - 17kHz and thus allows use of the RS-95 as VC-LFO with waveshaping options!
The "vary" control not only attenuates but also can amplify the pitch CV. It controls linearly from 0V over 1V/oct to 0.4 V/oct.
