Moog Music Forum

...at my local Moog store. They just took it in on trade. As soon as they price it, I think I'll make it mine.



It has a footswitch on a cord that works all the bypass switches and a huge isolated power supply in it. I would keep the top row and sell off all the bottom row stuff and replace that with Foogers I already own.

They also have a Kenton Pro2 MIDI CV converter for under $200 if some one needs one. (If I had known, I wouldn't have spent the extra on the Encore this week.)

If it only was in a cabinet with a few more spaces it woudl be perfect for a couple of CP 251's and then it would really be a powerhouse!

Not that its not already a powerhouse. I hope those mods were done really well.



Great find!

Very cool! I've thought about doing a modification like that but I just don't think it is worth the trouble. It's great to run across one already done for you though!

I believe we've seen this one before. If you do end up buying it, it would be interesting to get an inside view to see how the PCBs and panel hardware were mounted. My guess would be the boards are spaced back to allow room for the panel mounted sockets.

Good luck!

Smart mod!
I really hope one day Moog will ( re-) introduce moogerfoogers like that

They just called and set a price on it. I'll be in in the morning to pick it up. I looked it over earlier in the week and it is missing the foot switch, but I've got enough multi button pedals here to make a new one. All the sides and backs of the Foogers along with the instruction manuals were in a bag inside the case.
It was made by a guy named Kawana and is labled a "KawanaTron". The top row units are modded, the bottom ones are as factory. I'll probably sell off a Stock Ring Mod, the Murf and the Freq box. Adding a second 104 and a second Phaser to the rig for stereo processing.

(They will go inexpensive to anyone here, I'll let you know when I get it home.)

They also just picked up a pretty nice functional Roland System 100 while I was there. Had to play it a bit. But I need another mono synth like a need a power failure.

Got it home and have spent a few hours testing all the Foogers. Everything works and I've had some real fun with it so far.
This is the first time I've had all the varied Foogers to try. I'm sort of shocked at my first impressions of the Murf. I didn't think I'd have any use for one from the descriptions and you tube vids, but I'm really liking this thing. The Freq box is like a banshee, like I expected. I don't need to keep it as I can duplicate it with my modular, so it's for sale.

I'm torn as to selling the spare phaser or the spare delay. I don't need 2 ring mods, so one of them will go, also.

The Kawanatron conversion is really nice and makes patching super easy. This has been worth the money and really makes the Fooger more user friendly.

Gotta go play some more, this is inspiring.

Are you going to get the other three re-jacked?

If I do, it will be up to me. Kawana doesn't appear to be doing this anymore. The jacking and mods are not difficult, (after looking inside) the case would be a bit more work. I'm sure I can duplicate the power.

Cool way to reconfigure the jacks... pics from inside would be fun.

Nice bike.
I really like the chrome trim on the front fender.
What year?

Here is my 99 Sporty.



Nothing in the world like Ridin Moogs and Tweakin Harleys!!!!

Re: Just Me

Thanks for the pix. Notice how the phaser is spaced back from the panel so the sockets don't hit the PCB. Not necessary for the other two as their boards are shorter.

Yeah, he desoldered the pots from the PCB and extended them with some stiff wire to get the bottom of the PCB to clear the pots. The angle allows the rocker switches to remain soldered to the board.
Then there are just wires soldered to the points from the PCB to the jacks.
The remote foot switches are just wire wrap to the pins on the board. The neat thing is they are common ground due to the common power supply so it is only a 4 wire to the pedal.

(Oh, the bike is a 96.)

Pretty impressive piece of work. Do you know if that was a one-off or does the guy do this as custom work.

Hard to see where the foot switch was? Did he cut the pedal just below the Moog logo?

Aside from all of the upfront jacks, the thing I like most about that rig is the single power switch. Any idea what type of powersupply he used to get the 300ma per? (maybe that was custom also).

Good find...
