Theremini not responding to pitch antenna.

Hi all.

I’m trying to help someone whose Theremini stopped responding to the pitch antenna. I was going to check for any loose connections but I can’t even figure out how to open it up! I removed the 4 screws from the bottom but that didn’t seem to help. I did find the schematics online but I’d ...

Minimoog Model D replacement screws

Hi all.

I'm doing some small restoration/repair/calibration on an amazing 1971 Mini. It's lost a few screws over the years and I'm looking for matching replacements. I've come up with this table for all the ones I can see:


Quantity Description Where
2 #6 x 1 1/2” flat-head Philips wood screw ...

Re: Moog One TRANSFORM Requests

In addition to setting limits on the output of the modulation, it would be useful to limit/scale the modulation source. Using aftertouch as an example -
what one might want to do is to ignore all aftertouch being sent from the keyboard up to a certain value, and then have it kick in from zero to ...

Can you plug in a USB keyboard for typing in patch names?

Actually, both could be really useful. Simple example: lower the level the more notes played to help even out the volume. Another: reduce the detune the more notes played.

Reposting my questions in this thread since Dan was answering them here:

I'd like to know the details about voice assignment modes on the One. On almost all poly synths, if you set up a lead sound with a long release time, it isn't usable in poly mode since it just sounds like a piano with the ...

Re: New Moog Website Design

Yes - the new site design is horrible and appears to be done just for coolness or to assume the web designer with zero thought about usability.

Also, I just hit a big flaw in this forum site. I went to write a response in a thread. It was fairly long and when I hit Submit, it had logged me out ...

Re: Moog One ?

I love the beat-frequency knobs!!! Basically it's linear-FM detune in addition to the common exponential tuning knob. The downside of how virtually all synths do this is that if you set VCOs to have some slow beating at the low end of the keyboard, the beat frequency will be too fast at the high end ...

Re: 951 keyboard circuit

Yes - all the early mono synths (Moog Modular, Minimoog, Arps?, etc) used the 2-bus Pratt-Reed keyboard. One bus is the resistor chain to get the voltage. The other just shorts the two contacts whenever any key is pressed. The trick is that the first one must make contact first and release contact ...
