Professor William Hoskins' MOOG SONIC SIX



These images were sent in via Kimberly S Beasley, chair of the Department of Music at Jacksonville University, after seeing this post featuring Professor William Hoskins and a mystery moog based on the Sonic VI but with a touch sensitive keyboard instead of standard keys as you see on this one. See that post for additional details. It's a fascinating read.

According to Kimberly S Beasley, "This [Sonic Six] has been in the possession of our Professor Emeritus Dr. William Schirmer as it was given to him by Hoskins. Hoskins' granddaughter Dorothy is also aware of the instrument. We also have a large collection of manuscripts of Hoskins.

There is also a mini-Moog we just refurbished in our recording studio."
