MOOG Minimoog Sound Charts

Title link takes you to shots pulled via this auction. Note the auction is for a Minimoog not just the Sound Charts.

Kawai K3m


No title link, just this shot pulled via this auction

I never knew it came with a wave card. The K3m is capable of rudimentary additive synthesis. You can add harmonics to build up a sound.

Update: The seller, Robert, sent me a hi-res scan of the card. You can find it here.

Metasonix Tube Theremin?

No, not really, or at least not yet. So I'm desperately trying to catch up for the day and I stumble upon this post on Muff Wiggler. It's a list of ideas for Metasonix to do next. First on the list? A Tube Theremin. Just the image of what that might sound and look like (think about it) sent me running. Good one Muff. : ) Title link takes you to the post.

Don Martin Mini


Click here for more images of this Donimoog sent in by an anonymous reader. According to the person that sent it in, the "sound is very good, and extreme close, quasi the same as the original mini, I only noticed a different filter tracking." Except that,there are 7 other main differences (physical) Can u find them?"

For those of you not familiar with the Donimoog, Don Martin actually owned the MOOG name in the US when Bob Moog was running his company under the Big Briar name. Bob sued and eventually won his name back. You can read more in this Sound on Sound article where the following was pulled:

"In the 1990s, three new companies appeared, each bearing the Moog name, although none was connected with Bob Moog himself. In addition to the short-lived UK company Moog Music Ltd (see the 'Cambrian Capers' box towards the end of this article), there was the US-based Moog Music Inc, a company owned by a character named Don Martin who made lavish promises of new Minimoogs and other classic Moog products, took deposits from customers, but failed to deliver and then allegedly disappeared. The other company was Moog CE, which built modules for original Moog instruments such as the System 55 and IIIC. The owner of Moog CE, Michael Bucki, recently reached an amicable arrangement with Bob Moog, selling his name back to him, and renaming his company ModuSonics. He is still in business.

With Don Martin's Moog Music Inc defunct, and Moog CE renamed, Bob Moog was then free to rename Big Briar Moog Music Inc, and to undertake the development of the Minimoog Voyager. Except in the UK, of course, where it is marketed and sold as the Voyager By Bob Moog"

So can you spot the 7 differences? : ) BTW, DO NOT MISS this post.
