Re: Made a new Wood Case for my MiniMoog

Maybe its not like that the world over... Seems like two people from NZ (the two folks chatting up above) have different experiences back there. It might not be like that the world over, though my statement was that it is an 'industry standard'. Look up 'Dimensional Lumber' and you'll quickly see w...

Re: Made a new Wood Case for my MiniMoog

Lumber is sold by nominal sizes. When a board is milled, it is sawn at 2"x4". After it's run through the planer, it measures at 1.5"x3.5". Yet it's still called a 2x4. This is an industry standard the world over and everyone knows it (except woodworking n00bs). Always bring a tap...

Re: Soundtower Voyager Plug SE

I posted this in another thread on this site, and thought I'd repost it here as it seems apropos... Like most other companies, Moog hires SoundTower to build their editor. If you are having a problem with the SoundTower editor as many of us here have (both with Moog editors and other keyboard editor...

Post your pictures on Photobucket, then just post the link here...

Re: new editor

Like most other companies, Moog hires SoundTower to build their editor. If you are having a problem with the SoundTower editor as many of us here have (both with Moog editors and other keyboard editors) then the best thing to do is to write to SoundTower. If they do not respond, or do not take respo...

Re: Sound Tower Editor fails to receive presets correctly

+1 on SoundTower being a non responsive, non quality company. I have used their software for other keyboards and have even beta tested for them. They don't fix really obvious and egregious bugs, nor do they respond to notices that their software is buggy. I would not ever pay for their software, and...

Re: Moog Source Voyager and Source XL?

Bob was originally calling the shots. He designed the Mini. According to a book I just finished reading "Analog Days", Bob had very little to do with the actual design of the MiniMoog. It was put together quickly while he was out of town because the engineers working there realized that t...

Re: EMF effects on health with prolonged use

Hey don't worry about it. I know better than to get all twisted up inside from Internet discussion groups. :) FWIW, I have been making an offer on a Moog guitar because I have a strong curiosity about them. It will be interesting to play, in light of the various discussions here, as to whether any e...

Re: Interesting find

The Captain is Daryl Dragon (as you may know). His father Carmen Dragon was the conductor of the Glendale Symphony where I grew up. And yes, it was all 213 area code for a long time. Nice trivia. And are you the same Kevin who worked at SMMS in the late 70's? I was there '77 and '78, same time as Ro...

Re: Voyager VST Editor

I'm with Voltor on that assessment. I've been using the SoundTower editor for the Kurzweil PC3 series for the past three years. I've also been a beta tester for them. There are some MAJOR bugs in their software (make a change on one parameter and another one changes as well). This was reported a yea...

Re: 1V/Oct scaling on the MF-103 LFO

I took the Key Voltage out from the VX module, ran it into a mult, took two outputs from that mult and ran it into the FourInput mixer on the CP. With 'Offset' and attenuation controls, I was able to get 1V/oct tracking for about two octaves, maybe two and a half. The top octave of the keyboard neve...

Re: 1V/Oct scaling on the MF-103 LFO

I just want to clarify the issue you are having. When you play an octave on the keyboard, is the 103's osc sharp or flat? I'm using the LFO from the 103 in the audio range (high). It is flat compared to the keyboard. My initial impulse came from tuning the audio rate LFO to a related frequency from...

Re: 1V/Oct scaling on the MF-103 LFO

Yes, though in this case, you need to amplify the scale, not attenuate it. Specifically, from .6 V/oct. to 1V/oct. There are attenuators to be had on both the VX and CP modules. No modules to increase the voltage scale.
