These are things I haven't tested... I haven't tried adding resistors to ground, Wonder what values they would need to be ?

And your right.. Im feeding it with a saw tooth from a dixie II modular o ...

Notice that on your circuit input there is a differentiating RC resulting in converting rectangle like positive pulses into positive and negative saw-like spikes. You may need to play with R and ...

Thanks for the replies.. Yes I realize I can do it with a single supply chip but !!

To be honest I just didn't want to go down the road of buying more chips for a simple circuit.. I have 1 unused ...

Hi Guys ;]

Trying to get this to work on a single supply of 12v
I think it originally works on +-12v

I send a gate or pulse in and the cap and resistor reduce it to a spike..

The vco will only work with positive or negative voltage but not both ?
Then this does not allow a modular vco with+-5v waveforms to modulate the cv..

problem with this configuration is that the amplitude of the sinewave at the output will vary with the position of the offset potentiometer.

True but that would be a set and forget resistor..

Yeah.. I suppose I will need the offset just because in the real world some of the vcos and lfos might be slightly beefier than +-5v.

Unless the VCO CV input range is larger than your CV signal you shouldn't need any gain at all.
If you do need gain then increasing R5 or R7 should indeed work. Personally I would increase R7.
