Moog Music 1974 Minimoog Model D Monophonic Analog Keyboard Synthesizer

via this auction
"An original Moog Music Minimoog Model D from 1974. The Mini is in beautiful condition and aside from a couple key contacts that need cleaning/adjusting (the most common maintenance on the Mini), it is in perfect operating condition. The keyboard bushings were replaced in 2008, and the power supply capacitors were replaced professionally circa 2007/2008. It has no scratchy/noisy pots, they all work as they should. I've owned this synth for a few years, purchased locally from the original owner. It sounds like the fantastic analogue synth you'd expect. Also, I've used this under CV control under which it performs perfectly."

ANALOG SYNTH 12X12 FULL MODULAR WITH MIDI CV

via this auction
"(1) TADPOLE VOICE PCB (VCO, AR GEN, VCA ALL ON (1) PCB)
(1)RED VCO (SAW,RAMP,TRI,SQUARE)
(2)VARIABLE SHAPE DUAL LFO'S
(1)MIDI CV CONVERTER WITH GLIDE
(1) MORE ATTACK/RELEASE GENERATOR (TOTAL OF 2 ON MODULAR)
(1)OBERKONN VCF WITH SINE WAVE AT FUL REZ.

BY DEFAULT THE TADPOLE WAVE OUT GOES DIRECT TO THE ONBOARD VCA, SO YOU WILL HEAR A BRIGHT UNFILTERED VCO WHEN YOU CONNECT FROM THE MAIN VOLUME OUT. JUST PATCH THE 'WAVE OUT' TO THE FILTER AND BACK INTO THE 'VCA IN' AND YOU WILL BREAK THE INTERNAL 'SWITCHJACK' WIRING I DID. IT'S LIKE A SEND/RETURN.

THE MIDI CV IS INTERNALLY WIRED UP SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO PATCH THAT. THE EXTRA SET OF PITCH/GATE OUTS ARE FOR EXTERNAL GEAR. THERE IS A SWITCH TO TURN OFF THE MIDI CV PITCH AND MAKE THE VCO FREE RUNNING TO MAKE NOISES AND NOT HAVE THEM TRACK."
