New Moog Clone Coming From New Synth Maker, frobesynth
Moog Clone Keyboard Test Published on Aug 1, 2015 glkibler
We have a new maker coming. This is the first frobesynth post on the site.
"Test of my 'Frobe' hand-wired (no printed circuits) prototype Moog modular clone. What better way to test if a Moog is sounding like a Moog than with a little taste of Aquatarkus?
FROBE SYSTEM SPECIFICATIONS:
100% Hand-wired analog modular synthesizer. No printed circuit boards.
3x Voltage Controlled Oscillators
1x Low Pass Filter (24db/Oct 4-pole)
2x Low Frequency VCO (LFOs)
4x ADSR Envelope Generators:
4x Voltage Controlled Amplifiers
1x Sample and Hold
1x Noise Generator (Pink, White, Random)
1x CV Recorder/Dual Channel Sequencer
1x 4-Channel Mixer
2x Multiples Panel
1x Ring Modulator
1x Gated Slew (Portamento)
1x MIDI-to-CV Conversion
1x +/-15V 1.5A Power Supply"
I asked gkibler if his clone was based on original Moog schematics and if the modules would be available in completed, kit form, or via DIY instructions.
"Yes, it's heavily based around the original and updated Moog schematics but in order for the space savings I had to make some decisions how to strip what I viewed as extraneous knobs and parameters. I originally envisioned building these as complete units with a limited run of around 12 to 15 per year, yet keeping the cost down to somewhere under the $5K price point. Which is a great deal, considering this inhabits 80-90% of the capabilities and features somewhere between a Moog System 35 ($22K) and System 55 ($35K). Hope to have a detailed website available soon with more info."

All very well, but what people want is more modern (and cost-effective) production methods than Moog themselves use for their museum pieces, not the other direction...
ReplyDeleteit depends, if you want to sell thousands then go w a perfect german virus commercial scheme, this moog clone is for people who have money and collect special stuff.
