Moog The Source - Rebuilt


Published on Sep 2, 2018 Eyepatch Entertainment

"1981 Moog Source arrived DOA with classic crazy source issues. After rebuilding the power supply, the issues remained, so it took some deeper testing to find that the wires in the board connectors were disintegrating. An entire cable ended up being replaced since the connectors kept falling apart with repair.

Once done the synth could be calibrated and tuned and bazck to new.

Not yet, since the keybed was filthy. It was rebuilt and cleaned and looks new. The wood was treated and cleaned and the metal received a bit of metal polish as well.

Everything is back to excellent health and I was working on backfocus with the Nipponscope so I decided to upload this short video."

Sounds like a trumpet!
