Building an LFO powered from the gate CV

[Bacon]

I've been searching for an answer to this question on these forums and elswhere but no luck so far:
Is it possible to build a simple and inexpensive LFO that can be powered from a standard +5V gate CV?

The reason I'm asking is that I'm thinking of buying an Arturia Microbrute and I'd like to add an LFO mainly for PWM duties so th internal LFO gets freed up for vibrato. I'll use the Microbrute mainly for soloing in a band setting, so applying vibrato is a must but it would also be nice to be able to have PWM controlled by an LFO at the same time.

I'd like to power the LFO from the Microbrute's gate CV so I won't need yet another PSU to worry about, and I only need the LFO running when I'm actually playing a note so it doesn't have to be powered constantly.
If this is impossible, an LFO that I could power from a wall wart would be OK.

Any suggestions?

i don't think a gate signal will double as a reliable source of power. how about using a rechargeable 9V battery? also, how high do you need the LFO level to be?

try pm'ing yves for answers he is very helpful
and as he designed it he will definitely know. he is Yusynth on this forum.
I expect the LFO will be standard output levels of +/-5v.
same for your PWM input , also from the microbrute video's
the CV outputs will drive more than one destination , 3 or 4 reliably i think
although of course that still leaves you with only the one LFO rate, not ideal.
A thomas henry controller LFO would probably be a good candidate for an addition , Fonik may still have boards but you would have to check .
could be built into a small hammond type enclosure with a wall wart supply.

Thanks for the suggestions! I'll check with Yves if he can nudge me in the right direction.
