Details:
"This is a very rare Moog Sonic Six synthesizer. It's the only one I've ever seen thats completely functional (even the speaker) and also has all it's knobs, slider caps and switch covers. I also have a copy of the service manual incase you would ever need it. This is one of the later models that have the Moog filter. Also has an audio input so that you can run things through that great filter. Duophonic synth. Two LFO's (which can be combined), Two Oscillators, Ring Modulator, White and Pink noise, Contour generator (with bypass) and a mixer section. I accept paypal and shipping will be $40. Feel free to ask any questions! Pretty good cosmetic shape too considering it's 33 years old!
Two LFO's (Syncable or individual), Two Oscillators, Ring Modulator (with the ability to use external audio as one of the carriers), White and Pink Noise, Envelope Bypass for drones, built in speaker, portamento, Duo-phonic, The ability to do other keyboard scaling... Can sound very Minimoog like as well.
From the web [if anyone knows where this is from let me know and I'll update the post]:
The Sonic Six is an old, simple, and rather interesting machine. It's an outgrowth of Moog's expansion in the early seventies, when it took over a smaller company called Musonics, which made a synth called the Sonic V. Moog took the Sonic V design, updated it with more Moog-like features and released it as the attache-case-mounted Sonic VI.
It is an early duophonic portable synthesizer. It has some modulation capabilities not found in other small Moog models, and the sound...due to the odd filter design...actually has more in common with something like the Oberheim SEM modules* (That is true of the early Sonic Six's, before Moog put in the classic Moog filter into the sonic 6. This one has the classic Moog filter). However, rather simple VCA envelope and VCF filter sections make this an easy synth for any user.
Not commonly seen, they were actually rather durable devices and used ones generally (if proper care was taken of them) are found in good working order. It was designed for home use so it is light and portable and has a built in amplifier and speaker. It's a budget Moog synth that is probably more obscure than useful these days. But it has been used by Freddy Fresh, Stereolab and Spectrum/EAR."
