Hey all, The 555 VCO is officially out now, via Tindie: www.tindie.com/products/keurslagerkurt/kurt-m4vricks-555-vco-for-ae-modular/I'm really proud of the work m4vrick and I did to make this module a reality, and I think it's a great addition to the AEcosystem You can find all info, technical info & pictures, on the website. .. However, I wanted to also make a quick note here about the price (€85). It's more than my previous releases, so I wanted to assure that we really tried to keep the price as low as possible, in the spirit of the affordable AE format. Before release I hoped to be able to keep the price lower, but it sadly is the economic reality. First of all, of course, the prices of pretty much all raw materials & electronics are just higher than 2 years ago, and this is also by far the most complicated module I released yet. But the cost of living (as you all probably know) has also gone drastically up, so in order to give both m4vrick and myself a reasonable price for all the manual labor put into this modules, the price had to be as high as it is. I hope you understand! And to anyone who is not able to afford such a module (I feel you), the DIY schematics are online on the DIY part of the forum, and it is completely fine with me if you build your own version! (but please do not resell it of course). And if you need any help with this, feel free to contact me. Anyway, I hope to record some more sound demo's later this week, but I've used it in previous YouTube video's as well on my Keurslager Kurt channel. Cheeeeeeers! Kurt / Zeno

Big news! Congrats on the release. I can't imagine how hard it must've been to get the circuit stable.
Also, I'd say don't fret about the price too much. At the end of the day it's better for it to be worth it to you to get these awesome designs out!
Also huge props for making this available as a DIY thing as well. I'm sure many people will appreciate it.

I'm so happy to see it released !
Zeno did a wonderful job at designing this oscillator for the AE world, it's stability and sound are really a masterpiece in my opinion.
