MOOG MINIMOO with Velocity and Aftertouch

via this auction

"THE REAL THING: The Legendary MINIMOOG, in ABSOLUTELY MINT condition, fully restored by EXE (40 years experience) and functioning perfectly. WITH AFTERTOUCH AND VELOCITY SENSING ADDED TO THE KEYBOARD!! MAIN ELECTRONICS UPDATED FOR MORE STABLE VCO'S. NOW "THE SOUND" WITH THE EXPRESSIVENESS ONLY AN AFTERTOUCH KEYBOARD GIVES.

The MINIMOOG had several VCO versions. While they all generate the sound the same way, (so "the sound" is always there no matter which version you use) the earlier versions tended to temperature-sensitive at times, and thus drifted in tuning, requiring constant tweaking during performance. That is what you will likely get on other Minimoogs that show up. SOLUTION: Confirm the VCO's are of the LATEST REV. That's what's shown below, and included and calibrated in the MicroMoog MAX here. These were only available in the very latest MiniMoogs."
