Moog MG-1 MG1 with Sync Sweep Modification


YouTube via rolandsh1000. Moog MG-1s on Ebay
"Just a quick demo of a modified Moog MG-1 that will be on ebay very soon. This definitely doesn't go through all the functions (see Youtube's from Automatic Gainsay/Marc Doty for his _incredible_ series on this synth!) [see here], but just the basics. The main thing I wanted to show was the added Sync Sweep capability, which routes the Contour/EG to Tone2/Osc2 via an added switch. This can give you pitch swoops on osc2 when sync is out, but very cool timbre changes when sync is switched in.

Note: when demoing the effect of the LFO on the filter, I also had the Contour driving the cutoff, so I'd have needed to keep pressing the key to show the full effect. THIS IS EXACTLY HOW IT IS SUPPOSED TO WORK! :)"

Moog Realistic MG-1 Used as audio filter


YouTube via Thalassa77
"I've been working on this synth to the last weeks. It's a Moog Realisitc MG-1 and now after restoration it's like new or even better because I've made few modifications that increase the power and uses of this synth.

I've take it off the old RCA connectors and I've added and Audio Input to the filter, a Gate Input ( the synth has S-trig ) , and CV Input to control de synth. Also I've made a modification to have better signal/noise ratio. With this modifications this synth can be used as filter in your modular system, can be modulated by other synths , can be easyly controlled by MIDI using a normal MIDI/CV conversor ( you don't need special one with S-trig signal ).

A picture set of this synth can be seen here:

Modified Moog MG-1 Realistic Concertmate


YouTube via Zolophile
"LZX Industries performed some simple modifications on this MG1 to make it more useful. The RCA jacks on the back have been replaced with high-quality 1/4" jacks. The audio input is routed through the filter now and there is a filter CV input. This MG-1 can be used as a standalone filter or interfaced with a modular synthesizer and other gear, like Moogerfooger pedals. A V-trig input has been added, making it easier to sequence the synth or play it from other synths that use the v/oct and v-trig standard. The BEST mod on this MG-1 is an additional switch that disengages the LFO on Oscillator One. This allows you to take better advantage of the sync and "bell tone" features by modulating one oscillator and not the other--a sound you cannot get from a regular MG-1!"

The Realistic (Moog) MG-1 Synthesizer


YouTube via AutomaticGainsay
"Here is a demonstration of the sound and functionality of the Realistic MG-1, a synthesizer designed and built for Realistic by Moog. This is part one of a six part series (yes, there's that much to demonstrate!) This series was originally to be called "Why You're Wrong About the Realistic MG-1" because of the diversity of sound and function which this synth possesses. Keep watching for the next in the series!"

MOOG MG-1 Mono/Poly Analog Synth

via this auction

"This MG-1 has had the foam removed from the interior, so there is no danger of the foam melting and ruining the sliders and switches. The MM5823N six-stage divider chip in the Poly section has been replaced with a new more reliable version, as the old ones were very prone to failing. All sliders and switches operate accurately and smoothly, and all oscillators are very stable."

Moog Realistic MG-1


YouTube via electricpony
"first sounds.
Realistic [radio shack] MG-1 designed by Moog.
Fundamentally identical to the Moog Rogue besides a slightly different interface and lacking a pitch or mod wheel."

Concertmate Analog Drum Machine


YouTube via electricpony
"Called the "Electronic Accompanist Metronome", made in Japan for Radio Shack.
This is one of the most clever designs I've ever seen for a pre-programmed drum machine. Has only five buttons for different patterns but by selecting different combinations you can make a wide variety of patterns."
