Moog Music Forum

Oops... me and my sense of humour. Sorry about that. :oops: Well, to keep OT in the 19th Century the typical materials were brass, glass, steel and wood. So, plastic knobs don´t seem as "authentic", if it´s not going too far. At least Bakelite chickenheads or the ones used by MXR, or somet...

Crazy idea, but these shurikens would look nice as pitch/mod wheels. Shame about the bloody ergonomics.
Then again, only one person in the World would notice a Ninjasynth in the mix. Well, just forget it

Yes, and a line of bicycle light bulbs as VU meters for the mad scientist´s electronic brain look.

And dented wheels for pitch and modulation, for the old clock/industrial revolution/HG Wells timemachine look.

Congrats for a very unique design!

You could use something like these Morse keys as trigger switches.

I like the route Mr. Oberheim is following. No expenses with R&D, just a classic, tried and tested product, pretty much what the fans have been waiting for. If the SEMs sell well, maybe Moog Music will see there is a market for a Model E.

Me too.´Real´synthesizers are fun again. And Alan Pearlman is still alive, isn´t he? Maybe an Odyssey NexGen is in the works...

Less so if the boards are full of SMD components wavesoldered in China Not the case. I've alreday spoke with Tom O. He mentioned that the boards will be easy to mod and even mentioned a few ideas. He also stated that he is not offering to actually do mods, but it is indeed possible. I would imagine...

If the new SEM´s internals are exactly like the old one´s, there´s a lot of work in there so I think the price is OK. Less so if the boards are full of SMD components wavesoldered in China...

Hi again, 1. Adding a second LFO. 2. Adding a Noise generator for audio plus feeding a S/H on the LFO (These mods above would be based on the circuits of the micromoog) I´m no expert but the Prodigy runs on 12 Volts whilst the Micro runs on 15. You may need to use some resistors of lesser value in ...

Dear Moog Music,

please send my free MightyMoog polyphonic synthesizer with 230VAC power supply. Thanks.

Some have non-linear tapers around the detent or across the entire range. They may not sit exactly at the desired position, which would change the pitch of the mini when at rest. Didn´t think about it. You may be right here. Another minus is that panpot knobs are usually so small their built-in det...

I was thinking about filing the teflon tip just to sharpen it a bit, but there´s a better solution, I think: those pots used for balance control in stereo systems, or the mixing desks panpots. They´re invariably center detented on the inside, so all it´s needed is to remove the teflon thing and repl...

Wheel detent. This isn't a trim pot. There's a piece of spring steel with a nylon goody that rubs against the pitch wheel. If you take out your mod section, it should be obvious. It's all physical. My Rogue´s detent is made of Teflon, which is the most "slippery" substance known. Still, i...

Did you know Bob Moog was at one time the sixth member of YES ? :D Another link found at the Vintage Synth forum. This is one part of Shape Of The Things That Hum, "a TV series looking at cult electronic instruments that have shaped modern music". http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=48...
