Farewell Mg-1

"This is a little goodbye to my Mg-1, Improvised with the Moog, a moogerfooger ring mod used as an oscillator, a monotribe, and a 5u modular filled with STG soundlabs and dotcom modules. The mic I'm using is a cool thing I found when I picked up an inoperative reel to reel that I took out of the case my modular is in. It's perfect for stuff like this as I can just toss it in the mixer and go with it.

The moogerfooger is great, because you can route the control voltage signal into the audio input and you can listen to the frequency go up to the audible range and then you can use the lfo out to create two note sequences. Perfect for repetitive/drone work. Note I have my memory man after the mixer as earlier I was using it to loop all the signals coming in to create some lush texures.

All of the sound was then sent to two different tube amps set in different parts of the room. They both have different tones to them, so that in itself makes for a great performing experience. I highly recommend to anyone using electronic instruments to try different forms of sound reproduction as just straight mixer/interface recording gets a bit sterile at times."
