Look Mum No Computer 1222 Performance VCO is the brainchild of musician, modular inventor and YouTube creator - Sam Battle. The 1222 Performance VCO acts as the starting point for designing sound. The thing that sets the 1222 apart from standards VCO is the built-in tuner and freely-calibratable design. It also features a pulse width control, adjustable from 0 - 50 percent for added flexibility.
Whilst the 1222 comes pre-calibrated you can improve the overall accuracy of the tuning via varying power supplies. A reference voltage is available at the top left of the module, which (if adjusted) should be set as close to 4V as possible. The top right of the module features an LED display that shows the tuner's nearest note for quick and easy tuning capabilities. Not only that but it features a range of patch points including Pulse, Ramp and Triangle outputs. Also included is a 1v/oct input, pulse width mod CV input, frequency sync input, and frequency modulation CV input. The wide range of connections allows for complex sound design possibilities when used with external modules.
The onboard calibration tools allow you to customise the VCO to your liking, making it perfect for live sets. The inventor of the 'Kosmo' format, Sam combined elements from the Eurorack and 5U modular designs, allowing users to build huge, portable synths for live performances.
