Vintage Synth Lab released VCF-74 (MK2)

Vintage Synth Lab released VCF-74 (MK2) a 14HP analog voltage controlled filter in Eurorack format.

THE VCF-74 (MK1) HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED (NO LONGER IN PRODUCTION). It has been replaced with the VCF-74 “MK2” series module.

First, we would like to thank everyone for their continued patience with the VCF-74 being out-of-stock worldwide. We decided to revise the VCF-74 for the next production run to “MK2” series. But don’t worry, we are not making any major changes that affect the core sound/characteristic of this filter module. Rather, some minor improvements. However, the sheer number and type of changes warranted a “MK2” designation for this revision.

We are now starting the production of the new VCF-74 (“MK2” version). Our estimate for the first shipment will be around October 5th of this year. What are the changes for the new MK2 version of VCF-74?…

• The faceplate will look exactly the same, except the addition of “MK2” nomenclature screen printed.
• The audio signal path will have slightly lower frequency response as a result of component value changes.
• The audio signal path will now use fewer coupling capacitors (more direct-coupled circuits mean better performance, less slewing).
• Added buffer circuits at the input and final filter-to-output stage (which will improve performance)
• Added calibration trim-pots for resonance control.
• Revised “local” power supply filtering scheme to improve PSR for the discrete (Class-A) filter stages.
• Added ESD protection (ESD suppressor diodes) to each front panel jack.
• Changed power inlet header from 16P to 10P.
• Widened range for LOW PASS cutoff control

Note: Depth is now 29mm (current draw is the same as 41mA for +12V, and 48mA for -12V
