"It is not a VCO on a chip... The VCOs are discrete (it actually uses the same kind of electronic piece as the early revision Minimoogs), rather than the on-chip design so many others went for soon after (Like the OB8, Prophets, Memorymoog etc). This gives it a really monstrous analog sound.

ReplyDeleteNo. It uses uA726 chips. The same type chip the LAST revision of the Minimoog used.
The early version of Minimoog VCOs used no such chips.
Still sounds good either way.
