Original Instructions & Demo Tape for MOOG Bode Frequency Shifter

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated. via this auction
via the seller: "Up for bids is a set of both Original Short Form Operating Instructions and a Demo Tape for the MOOG Bode Frequency Shifter Model #735. I used to have this modular part as part of my modular system which I bought in the late 1970's and sold several months ago. I recently found these 2 items. I'm sure that someone will find them of great interest, since this was one of the rarest Moog modules ever produced.

The instructions appear to have come directly from the Bode Sound Company, and are on their letterhead. They are the original typed instructions, and not photocopied. These instructions are two full typed pages, and a 3rd page , which is a diagram, as you can see in my pictures. (there is also a hand drawn diagram on the back page- not drawn by me)

The tape is a regular cassette tape. There is a label on the tape itself- Side A states: Demo of Bode Vocorder Model No. 7702. Side B states on the label- Demo of Bode Frequency Shifter Model 735. The cassette is checked Dolby. Please note: I have never listened to this tape (although looking back I don't know why I didn't). It was included when I bought the module many years ago. I cannot guarantee what is actually on the tape, but I have no reason to presume that it is anything other than what the label states. The tape looks to be in good condition, with no hang-ups (turns freely), but for the reasons stated above I cannot guarantee that it works, and I don't have a cassette player on which to test it. Remember.....it is 35 years old!!! So I am offering it as is, and including it with the Instructions, which I am sure will be quite interesting to you."

Analogue Systems RS-240 Frequency Shifter Demo


YouTube Uploaded by pjoris2 on Aug 7, 2011

"A quick demo of the Analogue Systems RS-240 Frequency Shifter I bought a month ago and just managed to connect in my eurorack modular. Every sound in the video, apart from the delay, is made with Analogue Systems modules -- still hoping for that sponsoring contract ....

The demo starts with a basic patch of 2 RS-95 oscillators (pitch controlled by the AS Sorceror keyboard), through an RS-165 signal mixer in the RS-110 multimode filter. The lowpass output of the filter then goes in the RS-180 VCA. The VCA and the filter cut-off are both controlled by an RS-60 envelope generator, which is triggered by the clock output of the RS-200 sequential controller. In addition to the envelope output, the filter cutoff is also controlled by the triangle output of an RS-80 VC-LFO. For this the envelope and LFO output are combined in a RS-160 control mixer. The first minute of the video give this untreated sequence. I try pointing out the patch cords and signal path.

After this I plug the output from the VCA in the RS-240 Frequency Shifter. The A (downward shifted signal) and B (upward shifted signal) outputs are send to two channels of my mixer panned hard left and right. The frequency shift is modulated by the output from the RS-200 sequential controller -- so giving a different shift for each step -- and the triangle output from a second RS-80 VC-LFO.

I show the different sounds resulting from varying:
(a) the scale of the RS-240, this switch controls the amount of maximally possible shift from 0 to 5000Hz;
(b) the amount of sweep from the LFO (by varying the output level of the LFO);
(c) the amount of variation from the sequencer (by varying the range of the output of channel A of the sequencer).

After a few minutes I add some delay (courtesy of an Ibanez DM1000 early 80s digital delay) of the mixed output of the RS-240 to give further variation.

This is my first patch with the RS-240 (Bode) Frequency Shifter, but I like the sounds coming from this and there are few demos of this module on the internet so I hope you will enjoy it too."

Rare Vintage BODE FEEDBACK STABILIZER

via this auction
"Up for auction is a rare BODE 742XR "Feedback Stabilizer". Apparently, this is a variation on Harold Bode's "Frequency Shifter" design (as used by Moog in the coveted Moog modular series).
This version was originally geared towards feedback suppression applications (hence the name), and was generally used for live sound situations. I'm told that it has potential for modification into the "frequency shifter" zone, but, haven't really looked into it further. I DID, however, put signal through it, and it does seem to alter the audio (a phasing "tremolo" effect, of sorts), albeit subtle. The potential for modding it to do more seems to be there, but I'll leave that for the next owner to figure out. Generally, it does seem to work as originally intended, but could probably use calibration.
On the back are two empty sockets for line input/output transformers, which were offered as an option (which would be accessed via the barrier strip on the back of the unit) but are not necessary to the functioning of the unit, as the inputs and outputs on the front are the "normal" connections. Here's a link: http://www.vasulka.org/archive/Artists1/Bode,Harald/FeedbackSynth.pdf"

Bach's GIGUE FUGUE in G Major - on an 100% analog monosynth - PREVIEW!


YouTube Uploaded by syntesen on Apr 26, 2011

"-EDIT: To see where I'm currently at with the track, here's the Ableton screenshot shown briefly in the video: http://dave.gl/jsb_ableton.png !!!

This is a quick preview of my latest work. I recently purchased an MFB Microzwerg analog patchable synthesizer, so I just had to record a beautiful Bach work with it.

The Microzwerg is, indeed, 100% analog. The only digital part is the MIDI to CV/Gate converter. Apart from that, it's VCO's, not DCO's... and it's just sheer beauty to play around with!

Now, to record the track - totally like Wendy Carlos did, I suspect - just one note at a time, without MIDI sequencing, just pure hand-played... and creating patches as you go, as there's no patch storage, so the sounds will change (which rather makes the track come alive!) is really great fun, but it's also a hefty amount of work!

So please, comment, say what you think! If you like it, great, I could use some encouragement to finish the last ~65% of the music score. If you don't, well, I'd like to hear that as well!

All the best & love,
David

Moog Synthesizer 1630 Bode Frequency Shifter front panel

via this auction

"Incredibly rare. This is the front panel with the switches, jacks, LEDs and pots only! This is not the complete module. This is a left over assembly from the original production, it was never completed as a module at the Moog factory. I received this in trade from a former Moog employee. Some minor marks on panel but otherwise in good shape. Being sold "as is"."

Bode Frequency Shifter cased & psu

via VEMIA

"Moog / Bode Frequency Shifter 1630 The Bode Frequency Shifter was originally designed for use with Moog modular systems. The sound of the Bode is unique – it produces highly complex waveforms by shifting not only the fundamental but all input frequencies by the same amount. The result: non-harmonic relationships between the frequencies in the output signal. This particular one comes in a nice wooden cabinet with a power supply (230 V), just as it was mounted and sold by Studio Funk Hamburg in the early seventies. Of course it can still easily be built into a modular system. The machine has been checked by a tech recently and is technically in a very good condition. The wooden cabinet shows minor signs of usage. A copy of the original (unfortunately not complete) description by Studio Funk in German language and some notes from the moog modular systems owner’s manual on the Bode are included as well."

BSF-1 - Virtual Bode Frequency Shifter

"The BFS-1 is a VST emulation of the famous Bode frequency shifter.

The original unit was available as an expensive module for the Moog™ modular system.
Now you can get this special sound into your PC for a reasonable price.

The frequency shifter is not a pitch shifter, which changes frequencies by a multiplikation. Instead it shifts all frequencies/harmonics by adding a fixed amount. The sound reminds to a ring modulator, but unlike this, it is possible to get the upshifted and downshifted signal seperately.

Unlike a ring modulator, the frequency shifter is also capable of changing the signal by a low amount, e.g. 1 Hz, to obtain effects known as “Barberpole flanging”.

This plugin has some additional features like delays for each section, an LFO (all host synced), an envelope with MIDI trigger and an envelope follower to modulate shift and/or volume."

Moog Bode Frequency Shifter Update

See the update in this post for an interesting comment from Michelle Moog-Koussa.

Moog Bode Frequency Shifter model 6552 Owned by Walter Sear


via this auction

"This auction is for a super-rare rack mount Bode Frequency Shifter Model 6552 by R.A Moog. This is from the personal collection of Phil Cirocco of CMS / Discrete Synthesizers. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a rare piece of electronic music history.

This is serial #1001 and is the very first Frequency Shifter produced by R.A. MOOG. This particular 6552 was once owned by the great Walter Sear. It features ring modulator diodes that were hand selected by Harold Bode himself! It is listed in the Moog Archives http://moogarchives.com/ on the left menu select: "lists and charts", then: "custom sales" then: "frequency shifter".

There were 2 major incarnations of frequency shifters made by Moog/Bode. The first one (model 6552) is the one you see here. It is all discrete and uses actual diode rings and transformers for its ring modulator circuits. The second version (model 1630) is an op-amp chip version that uses balanced modulator ICs for its RM circuits. The second version, while being more convenient, does not sound anything like the first version.

I can say with confidence that you will never see one of these for sale again in your lifetime.

This Frequency Shifter is in excellent condition. There are no scratches on the front panel. It is #1 out of a known total of 11 units made. It was made by R.A. Moog under contract with Harold Bode. It is all original and functions perfectly. It is NOT a clone and it has a valid serial number and pedigree. It was recently calibrated here at CMS. It uses terminal strips in the back as all early Bode rack mount units do, so you will have to use a patch-bay nearby."


This one in via Keld.

Update via Michelle Moog-Koussa: I heard from Michelle Moog-Koussa, Bob Moog's daughter and Executive Directory of The Bog Moog Foundation. She stated, "I'm 99% sure that the model number and serial number are written in Dad's handwriting.

This piece was issued on August 21, 1968. Thirty-seven years later to the day the frequency of the whole electronic music community would shift as Bob's body left us......."

Remembering Bob Moog


[ Note: This post stays on top for the day. Tons going up below. Originally posted at 8:36 AM PST. ]

Today marks the fourth year of Bob Moog's passing. Play a little something for him today.

Be sure to visit The Bob Moog Foundation, and Moog Music where you'll find this wallpaper free of charge.

Don't forget, the "Waves of Inspiration: The Legacy of Moog Museum Exhibit" runs from August 29 - April 30. Keith Emerson and others will be there opening weekend.

Thank you for everything Bob. The synths, the inspiration, the humor, positive vibes and the magic.

Update: Mark Pulver's Moog tattoo. Mark was good friends with Bob Moog. I remember him getting this tattoo after his passing.

BTW, if you have anything Moog specific you'd like to send in, feel free. You can reach me at matrixsynth at gmail. Of course feel free to comment.

Also, I don't ask for a dime to run this site. I've had people suggest I put up a Paypal Donate Here button. I don't because I do have ads on the site and I believe in offering the site for free. But if you do want to donate, even just a few bucks, donate something to The Bob Moog Foundation. Little donations can add up. They are keeping not only Bob Moog's memory alive, but the magic and history of synths.

Modcan DUAL FS 65B

via Modcan where you'll find samples
"As with many modules in a larger system "One is good but two is better". For Frequency Shifters the Dual FS 65B is a two for one
and includes Ring Modulation and phase effects modes as well.

The 65B is an entirely digital interpretation of the standard Bode Frequency shifter model which achieves numerous significant benefits over its analogue predecessor, primarily the dual configuration.
Other advantages include stable low distortion quadrature sine carrier for accurate sideband generation, digital math eliminates feed thru error found in typical analogue multipliers . No need for squelch circuitry. Other benefits include absolute stability at low shifts, low noise signal path and zero maintenance calibration ...EVER. There are probably only a handful of Bode FSs in the hands of users that are ever within factory specs at any given time due to complicated and costly calibration procedure. With the 65B that will never be an issue and you will always have an accurate and precise instrument regardless of ambient temperature or age. Analogue Frequency shifters still maintain superior high frequency response over digital but due to the nature of the effect the difference is small.
Another important consideration is that it would be both cost and space prohibitive to implement a matched set of dual FS in analogue with similar features and performance.

The real fun begins when the two independent FS sections are internally patched in series and parallel configurations via the mode selection control. This allows for some seriously altered stereo effects with near 3D results.

Module Highlights:
* 2 independent Frequency Shifter channels in one package
* 11 modes including FS, Ring Mod and Phase effects
* CV and 1V/oct control of shift
* On-board internal feedback controls for each channel
* Clip indicators
* +/-5kHz Exponential Shift range
* Through Zero operation
* High Quality Codec
* 16bit Audio
* Zero calibration maintenance
* 20Hz-20khz response
* Modest current consumption
* Firmware by Eric Brombaugh

Specs:
Sample Rate: 45kHz
Sample Resolution: 16-bit
Output: typical 2V RMS@1Kohms
Input: typical 5V pk-pk@100Kohms
