"Just resurected an old Moog Modular System 1P, built in August 1969. I aquired this Moog last month from a person that stored it in his attic for the past 17 years. After ordering the parts I needed to first rescue the 38 year old power supply, the final part arrived this past Tuesday. So I wasted no time installing the fresh caps and wire-wound trimmers. Got a nice steady +12 and -6 VDC, and I was ready to fire it up!
I still have to calibrate and clean the individual modules, but was able to coax some sound out of the old guy. Here is a small sample of the first music this machine has made in years. Using a Dotcom 960 clone to run a sequence, the old Moog started churning out what sounded very old school Berlin style rythm. Recorded live as I played a Synclavier II (violin) and my 2 dollar soundblaster (flute) over top. moogmodular.mp3"
