Moog Discontinues the Moogerfooger Line


via Moog Music

"Today we say farewell to the Moogerfooger family of voltage-controlled analog effects after a 20-year production run. As one of the longest running lines in the Moog Factory, the Moogerfooger family holds a special place in our hearts. We will continue building a limited quantity of units here at the Moog Factory while our remaining inventory of parts and materials last.

The Moogerfooger family of voltage-controlled analog effects was first introduced by Bob Moog in 1998 with two pedals based on original Moog synth-module designs: the MF-101 Low Pass Filter and the MF-102 Ring Modulator. A year later, they were joined by the MF-103 12-Stage Phaser. Their voltage-controlled capabilities allowed the functions of one Moogerfooger to interact with the functions of another, inviting artists to explore a limitlessly reconfigurable sonic landscape. During its 20-year run, the Moogerfooger line evolved to include over 20 different variations, with various designs moving in and out of production over the years. Today, the three remaining Moogerfoogers currently produced in the Moog Factory are the same three that started this journey, the MF-101, MF-102, and MF-103.

These units are available for a limited time through authorized Moog Dealers.

To illustrate the sonic flexibility and organic beauty of Moogerfooger analog effects, ambient electronic composer Colleen has created a new work, Variables, an exclusive live EP of explorations recorded in the Moog Sound Lab. Using a Pocket Piano, Septavox, her voice, and an array of Moogerfoogers, Colleen creates an interconnected system through we she explores the sonic concepts of color, texture, and pattern."

Fano Plane // Eurorack Ambient


Published on Aug 27, 2018 rustyjaw

"A meandering stroll across a steppe under a light rain.

Quick patch notes: The structure of the track is, once again, based on Argos Bleak. Using its 4 outputs as 2 pairs of dyads, one pair creates the gong-ish bell sounds, and the other to the main melodic line. Each pair is multed to secondary oscillators as 'backing' sounds.

The noise washes in the latter portion are from a recording of rainfall on my iPhone that I fed into Morphagene and pitched down a little. That runs through optodist for some slight distortion.

Bassline is AJH Mini Mod sequenced by Stillson Hammer MkII"

Korg Minilogue Patches by DreamsOfWires


Published on Aug 27, 2018 DreamsOfWires

"Some of the Korg Minilogue presets/patches I made on my first proper day of using it. Many of the melodies and sounds are based on past and present compositions/recordings, a few of which are among my Bandcamp albums or YouTube uploads, and some are from material I'm working on for my next 'tomorrow the cure' album.
If you turn on Subtitles you can read some info on a few of the sounds.
If you like my music/videos and wish to help me continue what I do you can buy my music on Bandcamp, or support me on Patreon. You can also keep up to date with my creative output by following/liking my Facebook page. Links are as follows:
https://tomorrowthecure.bandcamp.com
https://www.patreon.com/dreamsofwires
https://www.facebook.com/tomorrowthecure

Recorded into AUM on an iPad using Audio Damage 'EOS2' for reverb.
More Minilogue, Minibrute 2, Roland D-05, Volca FM, and Eurorack Modular coming soon."

Korg Minilogue - playing over the sequencer (by DreamsOfWires)

Published on Aug 25, 2018 DreamsOfWires

"My first day with the Korg Minilogue, so I thought I'd try re-recording a past upload with it (original version: [posted here]).
I was going to film it outside, but it's been raining for a few days. However, I did step outside with the camera after recording to film a huge huge swarm of crows that were passing by."

Seymour Duncan FOOZ Analog Fuzz Synthesizer Pedal

Many guitar pedals can make your guitar sound like a synth, but few capture the tactile feeling and interactivity of using one. Real analog synths use different blocks (oscillator, filter, LFO, envelope) that work together to create unique new sounds and textures. Combining these tools in one box and allowing them to interact with each other is the spirit of the FOOZ."


"We have amazing engineers here in the Seymour Duncan Research Lab. And, like all great engineers, they love to tweak, tinker, and push the boundaries beyond the realm of what’s possible. Wayne brings his deep knowledge of analog circuits from the days of working on the Mars Rover (for real!) and Kevin has been designing circuits since before he could walk. And, now they’ve designed FOOZ...

Designed to synthesize the ultimate fuzz tone."
