Re: production/general synth/rack mount questions

wow, a year after this post I finally have what I would consider to be the bare essentials for my synth and when I patch I actually know what I'm doing. Learning the basics with a guitar was too frustrating, as soon as I got the midi cv converter and vca the basics all just clicked. Its like a baby ...

Re: Moogerfoogers in rack!?

wow, I was feeling proud of myself for rigging this up and then I clicked on this thread. Just a piano stand holding the dotcom with a rack and slanted shelf bought from a blockbuster that is going out of business for 15 bucks. Still, even after viewing this thread it's a big step up from the TV ...

Re: Why do Moog make ring modulators?

you can use the LFO to modulate your signal, and not just your typical wah wah wah wah modulation sound, there are infinite ways to modulate the signal (like a few long wahs and then a series of quick wahs). If you turn the mix down to 4 and turn the freq to high and the rate pretty long it makes it ...

Ring Mod LFO question

So I've been doing some interesting stuff with my ringmod and by far my most favorite part of this pedal is modulating my guitar signal using the LFO. The other day I even managed to make it modulate my guitar's signal to sound like a sprinkler (wap--- wap---wap---wapwapwapwapwap; it makes a 'wap ...

Re: MF-101 mods

this may be a dumb question but isnt the EHX Tube Zipper the same pedal as the LPF? Except the zipper has a trill mode and you can select which way the filter sweeps (up or down), and the zipper also sounds like it has a bit more of a bite to it, if you take my meaning. I have both and I hardly use ...

Controller suggestions

Hi,

I've been logged out for a while but now I've managed to schedule weekly synth time! I've had a hard time adjusting to the learning curve and one thing I've decided that would help is to stop using my guitar as a controller and to use a keyboard instead. I've got a few moogs (ring mod, freqbox ...

production/general synth/rack mount questions

Just got my dotcom entry level synth, only has the instrument interface and one oscillator so far though, so I can't do too much with it just yet other than annoy the hell out of my wife. I've read the posts and listened to various synth samples but nothing could prepare me for the sound and more ...

Thanks to all, just bought a few mentioned here, including the "Analog Synthesizers" one. I'll be sure to post pictures, however it'd be like showing off an 86 honda civic at a hotrod convention. Not to say .com synths are bad, but compared to what I've seen on here, haha, won't be much to look at ...

Moog Museum Update

I was just talking to some people at the Moog Foundation, there is still alot of work to do to get the museum up and running, please donate if you can, they are trying to get donations 10 dollars at a time, if you can't then please spread awareness. Maybe one day we can have a Moogfest at the Moog ...

just bought an entry .com synth.... suggestions?

I own a few foogers and I have just purchased the entry level system from synthesizers.com. I've asked this before but I cannot find the post for the life of me. Does anyone have any suggestions for books (not forums or posts or threads, not trying to sound picky or snotty but I just absorb books ...

eggcellent, great info once again. Thanks a ton, I think next I'll go with a freqbox, then LPF, then CP-251.

One more question to see if I have an understanding of how some of this works. Say I'm finger picking a chord, and when I pick the highest notes I want the oscillator to fire off a high ...

MF-101 or MF-107/simple rack ideas/carrier out question

I have the MuRF and the Ring Mod (I also have a bass MuRF for sale on ebay for $280 if anyone is interested (seller name edpoulsen919)), I'm not sure what to purchase next, either the MF-101 or the MF-107. While the 101 seems to be a cornerstone in every fooger collection, the 107 sounds really cool ...

LFO/ring mod question

Ok, so I know what an LFO is, but i'm having trouble understanding it's various uses. As I understood it, an LFO generated a low frequency which could attenuate or accentuate higher frequencies. But on my moog ring mod it appears to affect the "depth" of the modulation. I have a gut feeling that ...
