MOOG Multimoog

images via this auction
"the serial number 2485. The Multimoog is a monophonic analog synthesizer manufactured by Moog music from 1978 to 1981. Derived from the earlier (internally, it consists of a stock Micromoog Micromoog circuit board with the extra circuitry on a second board), the Multimoog was intended to be a less expensive alternative to Moog's flagship Minimoog. It nevertheless had some advanced features which the Minimoog did not include--most notably, it was one of the earliest synthesizers to feature aftertouch capability. Key features include:
* 44 note monophonic keyboard with aftertouch
* ribbon-type pitch bend controller
* "glide"
* two voltage-controlled oscillators with waveform continuously adjustable from sawtooth, through square, to narrow pulse
* oscillator sync
* noise source
* 24db/octave Moog transistor-ladder lowpass voltage controlled filter
* dedicated low frequency oscillator with triangle, square, and random waveforms
* extensive modulation routing options, including sample & hold, audio-frequency modulation of the VCF for quasi-ring modulation, waveform sweep/quasi-pulse width modulation, and more
* two AR (attack/release) evelope generators with switchable percussive/sustaining profiles
* external audio input for processing instruments, vocals, etc.
* external control voltage and trigger inputs/outputs for interfacing with other synthesizer equipment"

Update: see the comments in this post for more.

Sexy Back


YouTube via punkdiscoUK. From the people that brought us this.
"Putting the X-Factor into the xBase 999. Major sex appeal + 999 = punkdISCO!
Everything is the 999 plus 777 and 303. Recorded in single take. Should have done some editting but could not work out how. Lots more at www.punkdisco.co.uk."

NAMM: New VOX Continental?

MPS caught this image on fdiskc's NAMM set. Anyone know more about it? I'm not seeing this particular model on the VOX website.

Alesis Ion Sustain Pedal Control

"Video showing what can be done using a sustain pedal with the Alesis Ion's Mod Matrix. Sorry about video and sound quality, it was all done on a crappy little camera."

MFOS Dual Attack Release Envelope Generator

"Envelope generators are a staple of any modular synth. Having lots of them gives you lots of options when it comes to VCA control, VCF control, delayed modulation, and AR modulation of anything else your heart desires. This dual AR generator is very cool and each EG features triggered, gated and repeat mode operation. When repeat is on (while in triggered mode) the EG continually goes through the attack and release cycles. In triggered mode the front edge of the gate (or a trigger signal) is used to trigger the circuit into operation. The attack cycle begins and completes and then the release cycle starts, the circuit can be re-triggered as soon as the release cycle begins. In gated mode when a gate is applied the attack cycle begins. If the gate is removed before the attack cycle completes (output attains maximum voltage of 10V) the release cycle begins. In gated mode, with repeat on, the EG repeats when the gate is low (when short times are used). In gated mode, with repeat on and the gate is held high the EG will go to and remain at the maximum output voltage (10V) until the gate is released at which time the EG will begin to repeat the AR cycles (when short times are used). Primarily repeat mode is designed to be used in triggered mode.

Dual Attack Release Envelope Generator Features
* Two separate Attack Release Envelope Generators on one PC board.
* Each EG has its own repeat function.
* Gated mode provides classic AR response.
* Triggered mode provides AD response.
* Retriggerable as soon as the attack cycle completes.
* Attack and release times from 1 mS to 20 seconds."
