It would be nice if the LFO had the additional clamp functions of the 921.
-
You mean the "standalone" VCO 921 compared to the driver/OSC paring of a single 921a and three 921b?
Definitely a nice one to have (as it has been standard in the system 55).

Yes, an actual stand alone VCO 921. I believe that the stand alone 921 is the LFO for those old MM configurations. The Arturia version seems to have a stripped down stand alone 921 that they are calling an LFO. I could be wrong, but I don't believe there was ever a Moog module like the LFO module on the Arturia MM.

IMHO the LFO module doesn't resemble a 921 at all. See https://www.soundonsound.com/sos/oct03/articles/moogretro.htm (https://www.soundonsound.com/sos/oct03/articles/moogretro.htm) for images of both a 921 and a 921 a/b pair. The 921 has no LFO feature at all, but besides the clamp (what ist this BTW) it offers an aux output (same frequency) with a chosen waveform.

The stand alone 921 has a LFO mode

As do the 901a/b and the 921a/b
The LFO in the Arturia modular is a non-existent module as far as I know.
The big advantage to the stand alone 921 is variable waveshape soft sync.

The Arturia one is basically just a subset of the capabilities as highlighted.

Also, I have a pretty good grasp of the modular thing .. .I built a lot of these modules in my setup and have used a system 15 and 55 many, many times.

Ah. I've seen only smaller images of the module. And I've never seen a real Modular :(

The more it would be nice to have it in Arturia's implementation.
