Product Description
- Doepfer A-110-2
- Basic VCO for the A-100 modular system
- Voltage controlled oscillator
- 3-Position toggle switch
- Linear FM input and soft-sync input
- Tune control range can be set between approx. 1/2 octave and 4 octaves via a jumper
- Width: 8 HP / 40.3 mm
- Depth: 50 mm (measured from the rear of the front panel)
- Power requirements: + 12V: 150 mA (warm up period about 30 seconds)
- 60 mA (continuous operation) -12V: 30mA
PROS
- • Excellent core VCO sound, classic Doepfer character
- • Linear FM input offers precise, controllable modulation
- • Soft-sync input allows for complex, evolving textures
- • Compact 8HP footprint, ideal for space-constrained systems
CONS
- • Power draw is relatively high, consider PSU capacity
- • Limited waveform selection compared to more modern oscillators
- • Jumper settings for tuning range require careful adjustment

Frequently Asked Questions
Linear FM provides a more predictable and controlled modulation depth, making it easier to create subtle or dramatic changes without overly rapid oscillations.
It involves a jumper, so a bit of soldering is required, but the instructions are clear and it’s a one-time setup to achieve your desired tuning range.
No, the A-110-2 does not offer a dedicated sine wave output; the triangle wave is the closest approximation.
