Check out this micromoog video demo…

I’m still pretty new to synthesizers and only know what I do through fooling around with the LP. How do you get the sounds played at:
anybody find any interesting sounds in there?
Hello,
You may want to check with the author of the video for patch specifics they may be inclined to share.
In a general sense, the sounds you refer to in the clip seem to use audio-rate modulation of the filter cutoff frequency for the effect. The latter example sounds like a combination of audio and lfo mod of filter cutoff frequency.
The LP and the Vger can do Micro patches, but it’s useful to make a Micro patch template to get consistent results.

AHH i just wrote out this big long explination and it didnt go through !!! ill try again tomarrow, when im alittle more coherent, if nobody else can help you out before then
ok… lets try this again…
at the 1:07 mark he just manually sweeping the frequency of the osc. to do this on the micro you set the VCO foot to WIDE this allows you to turn the frequency knob to change the pitch. to do that on the LP if you are just using one osc (which is what the micro has) use osc 2 and press the freq button and turn the know like crazy.
at the 2:57 mark he has the filter set to TONE which is like a ring mod and the osc is modulating the filter (set to strong). there is also a triangle LFO modulating the filter cutoff (in this set up its similar to frequency control of a ring mod) then once again hes turning the osc freq knob by hand.
i dont think you can recreate this on the LP exactly but my guess (i dont have a LP to mess with right now but i did stay at a holiday inn express last night lol) you would have to turn the overdrive on the filter up all the way. as im looking at the specs you would probably need a ring mod to run the carrier output into the filter and set the the modulation section of the LP for triangle LFO to the pitch. OR, *****DISCLAIMER!*****this is a little more risky and dont really recomend unless you know for sure it wont damage the LP, is to create a feedback loop by running the audio out in to a spliter/ mixer and one line to the amp and the 2nd line going back into the audio in or the filter in. make sure you turn down the volume of both amp and synth and bump them up slowly as this tends to get very loud very fast. i do this with my Micromoog sometimes to create a wall of unholy noise 
so the first part definately recreatable, the second part not so much i dont think but you can get a similar effect
Sounds cool… thanks for the feeback!
Wow! Makes me want to start eyeballing Ebay for a Micro! 3 Moogs on stage! I wanna!
I saw one on Ebay the other say and the starting bid was like 2000. I was like MAN!
yea it seems like the micromoog has caught on lately. im glad i got mine when i did 
how about this beaute-

nice vid
At 1:07 the osc is just in such a low frequency that it is more of a gurgle than anything.
This is also due to the filter being switched into the high strength position.
Some peopel equate this sound to bodily functions on a record as Ive been looked at strangely a few times for this lolol.. “It was the Moog” doesn’t always go over too well. (About as well as blaming it on my shoe.)
Okay, 2:57
the filter is switched to high and switched to strong and notice the Mod wheel is all the way up. You have the LFO (probably a triangle wave) modulating the pitch of the oscillator and the filter while he is sweeping the entire frequency of the VCO. Notice when the sound cuts out, it was because the freq of the osc was so low coupled with the filter sweeping to a very low point, thereby cancelling eachother out. (This is a common conundrum for the beginning synthesist when they turn a knob and wonder why its not making any sound) You also have somewhat of a slower release too. Now don’t get me wrong, im not saying that Automatic Gainsay is an amateur synthesist in the least because ive spoken with him several times and he has a lot of great videos on youtube, but I remember back in my baby days when I didn’t know what the function of the knobs were and the sound dissappeared. One gets to tweaking analog knobs so happily without any idea and then the sound dissappears and doesn’t come back on when you power back up lol.
Can anyone think of anything that I missed?
