"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."Tuesday, February 09, 2010

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.
