Modded MOOG Prodigy


images via this auction

"This one-of-a-kind Prodigy has 12 modular connections on the rear:
01. Sync Input,
02. Cutoff CV Input,
03. Oscillator Modulation In,
04. Keyboard CV Input/Output,
05. S-Trig Input/Output,
06. Gate Input,
07. Gate Output,
08. Oscillator 1 Output,
09. Oscillator 2 Output,
10. External Input (1),
11. External Input (2),
12. High Level Audio Out.

These connections allow for modulation capabilities which would be otherwise impossible to achieve. I also also include a simple LFO, noise-source and attenuator, which I built from a Paia kit. This allows you to use one Prodigy oscillator and noise instead of the second, or to route an attenuated signal from Osc.2 into the Cutoff Modulation input for the harsh and 'clang-y' FM mod, or to control the Filter Mod and Pitch Mod from two different LFOs (the internal and external), etc., etc., etc."

Update: "I also also include a simple LFO, noise-source and attenuator, which I built (mostly) from a Paia kit. This allows you to route an attenuated signal from Osc.2 into the Cutoff Modulation input for harsh and 'clang-y' FM modulation, or to control the Filter Mod and Pitch Mod from two different LFOs (the internal and external), etc., etc. Here are some sound samples which I improvised using only the Prodigy and the additional circuit, with some slight spring reverb:
01.mp3
02.mp3
03.mp3
04.mp3
05.mp3
06.mp3"
