Original Instructions & Demo Tape for MOOG Bode Frequency Shifter

via the seller: "Up for bids is a set of both Original Short Form Operating Instructions and a Demo Tape for the MOOG Bode Frequency Shifter Model #735. I used to have this modular part as part of my modular system which I bought in the late 1970's and sold several months ago. I recently found these 2 items. I'm sure that someone will find them of great interest, since this was one of the rarest Moog modules ever produced.

The instructions appear to have come directly from the Bode Sound Company, and are on their letterhead. They are the original typed instructions, and not photocopied. These instructions are two full typed pages, and a 3rd page , which is a diagram, as you can see in my pictures. (there is also a hand drawn diagram on the back page- not drawn by me)

The tape is a regular cassette tape. There is a label on the tape itself- Side A states: Demo of Bode Vocorder Model No. 7702. Side B states on the label- Demo of Bode Frequency Shifter Model 735. The cassette is checked Dolby. Please note: I have never listened to this tape (although looking back I don't know why I didn't). It was included when I bought the module many years ago. I cannot guarantee what is actually on the tape, but I have no reason to presume that it is anything other than what the label states. The tape looks to be in good condition, with no hang-ups (turns freely), but for the reasons stated above I cannot guarantee that it works, and I don't have a cassette player on which to test it. Remember.....it is 35 years old!!! So I am offering it as is, and including it with the Instructions, which I am sure will be quite interesting to you."
