Low Frequency Oscillator (LFO)

April is shaping up t be a lovely month for LittleBits synth fans-- Thank you, Korg and LittleBits!

Really hope this one comes to light. Essential piece of kit for synths.

Please, please, PLEASE make this. This is a VITAL missing link to making the Korg LittleBits synth something with longevity and desirability for musicians. Please make this! I will pay anything to have this feature in my three synth kits!!!

You guys have to make this! Make this one and keep churning out korg bits for this format!!!

pingable LFO function. Request.

shouldn't input designate frequency... not amplitude?

This is the component that for me makes little bits compelling. I understand basic synthesis, but I've always gotten stuck at modulation, the strength of little bits is the ability to experiment and educate yourself. It's is the most modular synth you can get! With LFO I can really start to test and experiment with how LFO interacts with other modules, and other LFOs. This would push me to the next level of synthesis!

I need to add some expressiveness to my playing and I think this would be just the ticket. Put the word out to vote, fellow Bitheads!

yes!!!!
more synth stuff!!!!!!

Frequency control ! Please...

maybe even...have a switch for amplitude or frequency? Both would make this amazing... and pingable! Meaning... trigger in would essentially be a wave reset right guys? :)

this new bit is awsome but sigh i dont and i am new here

It would be a very welcome addition, I'm surprised it wasn't originally released.

we'll need a ADSR after this one and a propper ring mod ;)

It needs two bitsnaps along the top side - one for frequency, one for amplitude - with the left being purely for the incoming audio. This would make it work like the filter module, except better since the filter module doesn't have a bitsnap for resonance.

Definitely want to control both amplitude and frequency!

Voting is stalled, guys. spread the word on your synth forum.

Put me down for three. Please

You're the man, Luigi! Thanks!!

What's an analog synth without an LFO?!

New to LittleBits but have been playing with synthesizers off and on since '70s. Fiirst one was a Korg MS10 in fact. Signed up so I could vote for this. Gotta have an LFO to do some of the coolest stuff! Based on what I've seen so far, Seymore Clufley has it about right ;^)

Awesome!

I have a room full of young people (

COME ON!!! We NEED This!!!

HOLY AWESOME WE DID IT!!!!!

I am obsessed with littleBits since I got my synthkit... please KORG give us this LFO (and everything else) :-) to let us build our modular synth :-) nova*

Littlebits synth would benefit greatly from this module, please make it!

How do I vote for this?

A real no brainer- please add.

What other modules did not make it to the kit? I think many of us would be interested. Thanks littleBits and Korg!

Where can I add this to my cart? I mean, like, now!

what's
the price

Just got my synth kit last week, love it so far but it needs a dedicated LFO module for sure!! Would/will absolutely buy this

I want one.

Yes please.

Yes please.

Cool! I want this too! Hope it comes out soon or the folks at LittleBits education give me one to play with! (;hint hint;)
Thanks Tats! Much respect - I love all my Korg synth stuff!

I like how it's smaller, The tuning thing on the other osc is pretty useless for me anyway. This was stopped because it was to digital before, really hope you were able to keep this one analog here. or at least keep the analog style of sound. It better be an audible oscillator as well..... Maybe it has been posted before, but I think every bit should have a push button pot for extra controls, for those of us who build these things into cases it's impossible to access the tiny switches.

I would also purchase a couple of these if made available.

I've been using one of the oscillators to modulate the filter and envelope. It works ok but the sharp increase at the end of the ramp down isn't that musical when using very slow modulation. Being able to continuously adjust to a true triangle and everything in between would be awesome. I was thinking about adding the cv module to at least run a true LFO from my Eurorack setup, or even getting crazy and using some of the other modules to get a smoother modulation source.

Love it. I'd buy two.

*BUMP*

What's up with this module?
Can't wait to try one!

Luv Ya!

This bit has been in review for a YEAR. I have messaged @littlebits three times on Twitter asking the status, and haven't received a reply. What's the deal?

please make it.

Still waiting. :(

Almost what I am looking for! I need a low cost variable LFO that gives an AC type wave output (saw square or sine from DC) at say + or - 12V. (24V input). I need one initially to test my invention and if it works I will be back for many MILLION more..

Does anyone know the status of this bit..?
Loosing interest.

Please, +4 with me.

Is this still under development? Can I vote for it?

This LFO sure is needed. Please finish development and put in production. Thnx for all your good stuff!

An LFO would be a great addition!

I also am surprised that this was not in the original kit and am eager to have it. What is happening?

This is a must have. Time to get it out of "review" and into production!

Man, STILL no LFO? I need a few of these!

The synth kit is a great way to get a small sense of what it's like to use a real modular synthesizer. The LFO bit is crucial missing piece of this particular puzzle. The synth kit may look like a child's toy instrument, but it doesn't sound like one. It has inspired me to eventually expand my already considerable collection of synthesizers with a small
Euro-rack instrument that will eventually become a massive modular system. A bit that allows audio and CV I/O connections could become and entry level modular foundation for others.
The Moog Mother 32 and the Arturia Microbrute are two the current gateway instruments into the modular world. The LB synth kit could make that world bigger with just a couple of more pieces.
The interconnection cables could also be reconfigured to allow audio signals to and from other devices with some minor modifications.
For now........LFO, LFO, LFO, LFO, LFO.....................

So how long does a review take?

Enough review! Please make this.

Woo! This needs to happen! :)

Please Please make it !!! can't wait anymore ....

Status update please. Have been waiting too long for this

LFO, please. Maybe we should increase the frequency of our requests? Then increase the amplitude?

Please put this in production!

ETA?

Please give us an update

Sure would like to add this to our kit... maybe two.

Want! Please tell me this is still on the cards!

Hi everyone, I've been bugging littleBits for an LFO since (synth?) I first got the kit. As a former synth instructor (UVA) and professional, I agree that this Bit is long overdue. The joystick is also a Bit that I've been long lobbying for, but how about these.....

ADSR
Lag processor
3, 4 channel mixer
VCHigh pass or multimode filter

These item would bring our beloved KORG littleBits synth to whole new levels.

How about it folks?

Please release the LFO filter for sale thanks: )

Is there any chance this will be produced? It would be really cool!

Would love to see something like this produced. The system needs a good LFO.
