  • Page 3 W H AT I S P O N Y V C O ? Pony VCO is a fully analog Thru-Zero oscillator with wavefolder and dedicated VCA in only 4HP. The module offers great stability and tuning capabilities thanks to its powerful core, based on Sound Semiconductors IC.
  • Page 4 Warming Up our VCO As Pony VCO is fully analog oscillator, is highly recommended to leave the module warming up for at least 15 minutes before use it. That will allow the core to reach its ideal temperature and ensure full tracking stability.
  • Page 5 THRU ZERO RAMP Wavefolding (Timbre) Pony VCO includes a wave folding circuit for the Sine, Triangle and Ramp waves. On wave folders, once an input reaches a certain threshold, the circuit inverts the direction the wave is travelling, “folding” it. Generally, it’ll do this multiple times, creating a very complex sound from even a simple input.
  • Page 6: Pulsewidth Modulation (Pwm)

    Square is at its maximum and minimum level is the same. Pony VCO counts with a vast PWM range, being able to achieve very tight pulse widths. This is very useful to make monophonic “string”...
  • Page 7 The module comes factory calibrated so this procedure is only necessary in exceptional cases. Please follow the steps carefully. If you find trouble during the calibration please drop us a mail at support@befaco.org and our technical team will help you through the process.
