Bob Moog Foundation Celebrates 10 Year Anniversary with New Moog Catalog Timeline & New R.A. Moog, Co. T-Shirt

via The Bob Moog Foundation

"We are thrilled to be celebrating 10 years of the Bob Moog Foundation! Over the life of the Foundation, we have educated thousands of students and trained hundreds of teachers through Dr. Bob's SoundSchool, preserved over 5,000 historic documents of all kinds through our work with the Bob Moog Foundation Archives, and inspired people of all ages through various exhibits and public interactive experiences.

Thanks to all of you who have continuously supported us along the way! We simply couldn't do it without you. Together we have made a significant impact in many, many lives.

Today we are celebrating by releasing a massive, historical timeline of Moog catalogs from Bob's earliest company, R.A. Moog, Co., founded in 1954, up through his introduction of Big Briar's Minimoog Voyager in 2001.

Check out the interactive timeline here.

The timeline is an testament of our ongoing commitment to both preserve and share the materials in our archives. We hope that you'll find the timeline a valuable resource to discover the history and evolution of Moog products and companies.

We would love to hear your feedback about the timeline. Please email us at info@moogfoundation.org with any comments."

"Bringing Back an Iconic Logo

As part of our 10 year celebration, we are offering a very special t-shirt with the original, iconic R.A. Moog logo, from Bob's very first company, R.A. Moog, Co., which he founded in his parent's basement in 1954.

Featuring waveforms emanating from a musical staff into a vacuum tube, the logo is indicative of Bob's early dedication to science, music, and technology. Under the logo is the original tag line, "Devoted to the Development and Manufacture of Electronic Instruments for Musicians."

You can order your R.A. Moog shirt here!

Proceeds from all items from our online benefit our education and archival projects. Show some BMF love and help us inspire the future at the same time.

Thank you again for your ongoing support of the Bob Moog Foundation! We are honored to be carrying on Bob's indelible legacy, and to be inspiring so many people. We simply couldn't do it without you!"

New Detroit Underground DU-SEQ Eurorack Module

"DU-SEQ is an analog pulsing sequencer with a highly intuitive interface. The 1V/octave pitch signal path is fully analog, and the gate signal is generated entirely from discrete 7400-series logic (no microcontroller) clocked directly from a built-in clock with tempo and gate width settings, or an external clock/gate signal.

Each of the up to eight steps has a two-octave pitch range and can be assigned to pulse or count up to eight times using one of six gating patterns -- including two external gate pattern inputs -- allowing for a huge diversity of musical possibilities.

Other features include CV control of step direction, CV selection of the next step, slew rate limiter assignable per step, and a half-clock button and CV input. Fuzz the direction input with noise to generate a glitch in the sequence on tempo."

New Octopus Eurorack Module From Twisted Electrons

"SWITCH 8 POTS, 8 SIGNALS
photoOctopus is a dual 8 way multiplexer/switch allowing to sequence up to 8 signals or potentiometers .

Sequence pitch with pots, switch audio signals with the cv inputs, so many possibilities!

The horizontal axis sets the channel, the vertical axis stores 8 channel positions.

The fun begins when you start sequencing or modulating the channel selector either:

Manually by use of the two large potentiometers
by overriding the potentiometers with CV (0-5V DC)
by moving up and down the vertical axis via Triggers (5v DC pulse)
NOTE: The CV inputs are not limited to Control Voltages. You can use octopus to “switch” audio too, like multiple waveforms of an oscillator, or audio tracks of a song!"
