Ileana Grams-Moog on Bob Moog

Ileana Grams-Moog wrote a touching post on Caring Bridge. The following is only a short excerpt, so do take the time out to read the full post.

"It has been almost exactly two and a half years since Bob's death, and over a year since my last entry. I had no idea that people were still visiting this site and posting tributes to Bob until my stepdaughter Michelle, the director of the Bob Moog Foundation, told me so. My chronic fatigue generally keeps me from using the internet.

I am so touched and grateful to know how much Bob meant and continues to mean to so many people. For my daughter Miranda and me he was as close to perfect a (step)father and husband as is humanly possible. Those qualities that we loved clearly affected the thousands of you who had only a brief encounter with him, but that made such a deep impression on you that the memory of it is still alive. It is traditional in Judaism to say, after mentioning the name of someone who is no longer alive, 'May his (or her) memory be for a blessing.' Bob's memory is a blessing for all of us who knew him, whether for a few moments or for years."

edie versus the voyager

Two shots via trey

"we ended up having a moog voyager that needed a home for a couple of days. it was a lot of fun getting to really get deep into it in my own studio, but the real joy came when my one year old daughter, edrye, discovered the large, knobed behemoth make crazy sounds in daddy's studio. i sat her down, and showed her around a little, all the while snapping as many photos as i could."

MFOS Stereo Panner (Leslie Cabinet Simulator)

YouTube via djthomaswhite
"This is my MOTM format build of the MFOS Music From Outer Space Analog Stereo Panner circuit. This is not your typical stereo panner or tremelo! There is a "rotor" function which ramps the speed of the panning from A to B. A is a slower pan rate and B is a faster pan rate. The distance between the slow and fast rates is decided by an on board trimmer on the PCB. Ray really made an awesome circuit here and I really recommend you build one for yourself in your format of choice. Find more information and PCB's for sale at www.musicfromouterspace.com. You can find more information on my builds at www.naturalrhythmmusic dot com. Thanks for stopping by!"

MFOS Dual State Variable Filter

YouTube via djthomaswhite
"This is my customized design based on the Ray Wilson Music From Outer Space State Variable (Multimode) Filter. This combines two separate filters in one panel, normalized together with the addition of a reversing attenuator for some modular fun. I call this the "Multimode Frequency Modulator". The video showcases the sound with a highpass of filter section A into a lowpass on filter section B. The normalization can be broken so this can operate as two separate filters in one panel. Both sections together can have a response of 24db Like a Moog or Sequential Circuits filter. Interesting combinations can be found by combining various settings (freq/resonance/mode) on each of the two 12db filter sections. This fits into any format... but that is up to you. The pcb is what you order from MFOS and then you have to source the other parts. Luckily the parts are ALL easy to come by. Thanks goes out to Ray Wilson for making such a cool pcb project available to the DIY community!"
