"This is a custom model that was modified directly from the Moog factory...
First of all, it has a really nice custom paint job... baby blue with yellow trim and mod-style yellow arrow up the back. The ribbon controller has been replaced with a pitch/mod wheel. The wheel is not center-detented or spring loaded and at first I didn't like as much as the ribbon controller on the Micromoog I used to have, but after a few minutes of playing around with it, I changed my mind as it is very expressive and allows for very natural, smooth manual vibrato and the notch in the wheel fits right into the players thumb so it can be manipulated very quickly. There are some additional switches on the neck compared to the stock Liberations I've seen. There is one marked "Ext Trig on/off" which presumably allows you to turn off the CV/gate to an external synth (located on the rackmount interface) so that you can double your lead lines with an external synth, then switch it off when returning to rhythm or bass line (much like the feature included on the Polypedal with the Polymoog). There is an unmarked switch below it which changes between low and high note priority... this is very handy when using the monosynth (2 oscillators plus ring mod) along with the polyphonic (i.e. divide down oscillators) section, as the monosynth can be selected to play either the bass or lead part of a chord with the flip of a switch."
I don't care if it is factory paint. It's still ass-y.
ReplyDeleteSo this hideous paint job means it will go for less?
ReplyDeleteI sure hope so.
Fischer-Price "My First Moog"
ReplyDeleteLook on the bright side, at least it's not further devalued with a signature.
