A great post on the AH mailing list came up on the first use of Moog synths in Rock and Roll. Bill noted the following:
"- The Doors (first rock band to use a Moog on their "Stange Days"
track/album in Oct. '67)
- The Monkees (first pop band to use a Moog on the track "Daily
Nightly" in Nov. '67 - see YouTube)"

This is a random patch that I've created trying to emulate the typical buchla patches
.
The MFOS is used here as gate generator. In this sequencer you can select gate on/off for every step, here odd steps are on and even are off, the sequencer is in random mode ( step is selected aleatory ) so every new clock signal can generate a gate signal or not :)
----------------------------------------
Two signal flow can be distinguished :
1
MFOS Gate - Slew Limiter ( acts as gate delay ) - ADSR1 - VCA1 - OUT
Niose - EMS Filter ( Cutoff modulated by sample and hold and auto oscillating ) - VCA1
VCO2 is modulated by LFO1 that is been modulated by VCO1 ( in LFO mode )
Multimode Filter Cut off is modulated by random signal ( not sample and hold )
----------------------------------------
This patch is hard to explain , so if you don't understand it don't worry is just me and my awful explanation.
