Plan B Model 15 oscillator

via this auction

"This is the mk1 version of this amazing sounding oscillator for eurorack modulars. The immensely popular Plan B Model 15 is an analog Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) featuring an all-discrete component triangle wave core, two independent fully processed (+/-) VC inputs, a single 1V/Oct input, a dedicated linear FM input, sync, and independent Sine, Triangle, Saw, PWM and Wave Morph Outputs. The VC Wave Morph is a vactrol-based (read: smooth) crossfade function via a manual pot setting or VC control and the morphs from Sine to either Saw or Square wave outputs. Due to it's triangle core architecture, the sound replicates that of the Buchla 258 with stability better than .01% (less than 4 hertz drift at 1kHz over 24 hours) and boasts a frequency range of 1 to 20Khz and a maximum power consumption of only 40mA."

"It is unknown how many mk II's were made but this one appears to be #56 by its serial # 410056... 16 VCO's and eight VCF's and VCA's... The "Brass" section should have been called "Bass" because this is where you will find some powerful moog type bass sounds. It really sounds incredible for bass...and the envelope is NOT slow like the Polysix. Also can be monophonic/ single-triggered. Strings are very nice and are close to the Solina, but with overlapping envelopes for a more beautiful haunting sound and even has an equalizer, etc. Pair them up with the synth-strings and there you have a stereo Jupiter-8 like string sound! (using the individual outputs for stereo spread with your mixer, you know...) The flanger sounds awesome and is not only limited to flanging, but also phasing and more importantly, chorus for your "dual" squarewave/PWM synth sounds (and detune, like you would do on the Polysix) as square is not available from osc 2. Finally, the sound of the synthesizer is incredible and very warm and prophet-like, with these SSM 2044 filters. In my opinion, the best sounding filter second only to the SSM 2040 as found in the rev.2 prophet-5's."
