The VCS 3 (from Voltage Control for Studio with 3 components) is an oscillation effects musical synthesiser.

VCS3s are used in music for reverb and special effects. A well-known example of its use is on Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon, where it was used extensively, to create a multitude of effects, most noticibly with the ticking clock, and with the bass on "On the Run". The VCS3 has a Noise Generator, 2 Input Amplifiers, a Ring Modulator, a Voltage Controlled Low Pass Filter (VCF), a Trapezoid Envelope Generator, Joy-Stick Controller, Voltage Controlled Spring Reverb unit and 2 Stereo Output Amplifiers. This synth was also used by Brian Eno when he was with the band Roxy Music.
