Nano Modules Font
Compact 2-pole VCF with sine VCO self-oscillation
6 HP Eurorack module
FONT is a voltage-controlled 2-pole multimode filter built around a high-quality V2164 IC, offering simultaneous Low Pass and Band Pass outputs. An OTA in the feedback path provides voltage-controlled resonance with soft-limiting for clean self-oscillation, making it usable as a low-distortion sine wave VCO. Its precise 1V/octave tracking and compact 6HP size make it an expressive and space-efficient choice for melodic filtering and oscillator duties.
Features

- 12 dB/octave slope on both outputs
- OTA in feedback path for voltage-controlled resonance
- Soft-limiting OTA ensures clean self-oscillation
- Self-oscillation at approximately 80% of RES knob travel
- Low-distortion sine wave VCO when self-resonating
- 1V/octave pitch tracking over 5+ octaves via OCT input
- CVF attenuverter for bipolar frequency modulation control
