"This is a very rare synthesizer, the Moog MuSonics SONIC V, from 1972. Only 100 of these were made, and this is serial number 90. They were only available in 1971 and 72 when Moog joined MuSonics. I bought it many years ago in Buffalo New York, the same town where they were created. I took it to original inventor Gene Zumchak who still lived in Buffalo and he signed it for me on the front panel. He said he had not seen one since 1972 and never signed one before or since.

It is in all-working condition, 2 oscillators, 2 lfos, low pass filter, ring modulator, envelope generator, and VCA. (These are very similar in design to the later Sonic 6, which was a redesigned by Bob Moog and Dave Luce.) in some ways I consider this superior to the Minimoog, has it allows wilder and crazier modulation - plus the ringmodulator. As we say, it sounds more like a 'baby Moog modular.'

Please see the YouTube video I made a while ago, showing how great and fascinating this instrument can be." You can find them in previous posts here.
