Foogers and Modular Synthesizers

For a long time now I have been wanting to get a modular synth. I would like to integrate one with my rack of foogers. The question is, can I do with with the range of CVs that foogers use? One way would be to find a good single or perhaps multiple CV attenuator or use the control processor to do this. Would this work? Does anyone use foogers with a modular.

It’s possible I can have a digital synth, foogers, digital effect and a modular synth all interacting. The possiblities are endless.

yes, options are endless.
I use some soft synths, and mostly my foogers with my.com

really, the only problem i face is getting a hot enough signal from the foogers into my.com synth… i occasionally get too hot form them to my foogers.. but the tracking is the same.


Basically. i got the instrument interface for that… and I have no problems ramping up my CV or other signals to the hotter .com specs. (the foogers DO operate in this realm for some of the CV.. mainly pitch tracking on the 101, etc..

I guess solution to the voltage difference would be to use attenuators. Most modular companies sell these at low cost although I am not sure how it would effect the voltage range. There should be some sort of relatively simple electronic solution.

I am also not sure about the -5 to +5 v range but again, perhaps an attenuator might solve this.

And if you don’t want to buy a whole CP 251 for the attenuators, you can always find a DIY attenuator somewhere and handle that yourself.

±5 is the standard for 1 volt per octave, as it is slightly more octaves than a human can hear.


it interfaces better than you think. though… i ended up getting a hotter white noise module, just to save patching


it also had lower freq - The moog white noise cuts off at 130 hz or something and doesn’t have pink noise …
