"In this shootout the sounds of the Moogerfooger MF-102 and the Vermona RM1 are compared to the sound of a vst plugin called the Ringer, to an average quality digital hardware ring modulator (the Alesis Bitrman) and to the sound of a classic analog circuit (CGS real ring modulator: lattice-type ring of four diodes). Finally the versatility, usability, etc. of the Moogerfooger and the Vermona RM1 are compared."

This is cool, and I'm still reading and listening, but I must comment on a glaring error in the article. He writes:
ReplyDelete"Technical note: mid price analog ring modulators ... are often built around so-called 4-quadrant multiplication ic's. These effects are not in this test for the simple reason that i've sold them all. They sound a bit sterile, flat and harsh compared to high quality analog products like the Moogerfooger."
Actually, the Moogerfooger uses a four-quadrant multiplier (4QM), and it's likely that all of the analog units besides the CGS RRM are based on 4QMs.
