The Sisters of Transistors at the George Tavern
Inside electronic instruments
"I just put up a small set on flickr of the innards of various synths. I'll try to add to it from time to time. So far there's the Yamaha SY2, Yamaha YC-25D, and a Russian handclapper stompbox. Also a homemade Triwave Picogenerator.

Pictured:
"The Yamaha SY2 oscillator and filter modules. Apparently the filter is the same as the one in the enormous GX1 monster synth, and thus the same as the one in the MOTM GX1 filter. Old Crow actually reverse-engineered this filter for MOTM by dissolving the material it's potted in--see his page on the project at www.cs80.com/ne_proj.html."
MOOG Moogerfooger Murf

"The MF-105 MuRF is a new and unique effect designed by Bob Moog. MuRF is short for Multiple Resonance Filter Array. The MuRF provides sequenced filter effects that have not been heard before!
MuRF stands for "Multiple Resonance Filter Array". What this means is the MuRF has 8 filters - their levels are controlled by 8 sliders. It looks like a graphic eq, but the sound of the filters are very different: warm and resonant.
What is really unique is the ability to animate the levels of the 8 filters in up to 24 preset patterns. The rate of the patterns can be set by a knob, expression pedal, or plug a footswitch into the tap tempo input to match the rate to the tempo of your song. Rhythmic variations can be created by adjusting the levels of the filters. The Envelope control sets the shape of the modulation, which can be set for percolating techno rhythmic modulation or shimmering timbral morphing. Other controls include Input Drive, Output Level and Wet/Dry Mix.
MuRF shares the musician-oriented features that are common to all Moogerfoogers. All the audio processing is 100% genuine analog, for warm, fat sound quality. Any line level or instrument level audio signal may be processed. Wide-ranging player parameters may be controlled from the panel knobs as well as from expression pedals or CV-compatible analog synthesis instruments. Components are rugged and long lasting, to withstand the rigors of stage and studio. The MuRF is housed in the classic Moogerfooger "double-wedge" enclosure that may be used on a table or on the floor.
More information plus lots of nice audio examples at the Moog Site

MOTM-521 Cloud Generator Expansion Breadboard
via My Synthesis Technology MOTM Analog Modular Synth where you can find an update from Paul S. of MOTM. For those not familiar with what a breadboard is, it's where you prototype and work on designs before actual manufacturing. The breadboard itself is the brown board you see the components sitting on.

"Hoy lo pasamos increible tocando temas de JMJ. Aqui pueden ver un momento entretenido. Esta es la version de Memo Scope.
Melodia: DIVO - Roland D-50 as a Controller

Today we had a great day playing some Jarre songs... Wow... we had a really god time isn't? Memo made this very good new version of this great song."
