Field Effect Studies by Benge

"The music contained on this album was created using a Moog Modular 3C synthesiser, one of the very few original systems made in 1967. In addition some sounds were originated on a 1975 Moog Polymoog keyboard and then passed through the modular system for further treatment. No other sounds were used on this record, however on occasion a short delay of around 500 milliseconds was applied to one or other side of the stereo signal to provide a spacial dimension to the recording

Several of the pieces made use of the Sequential Controllers, which are modern clones of the Moog design, and, along with the various Sequential Switches and Sequencer Interfaces, can be set up to create some very complex melodic patterns. These can be heard to good effect on the second track “Sequoia”

The Title of the album makes reference to field effects, but I have left it deliberately ambiguous as to which kind of fields are being referred to

"The Dark Energy is a single oscillator monosynth with a 24 db lowpass filter, 2x LFOs, and ADSR and VCA and a nice set of patch points! Perfect introduction to the world of modular synths (patch cables not required for basic operation) or as an ad-on to an existing modular setup. Includes the original power supply and is in great shape."

Original ARP Odyssey MKI 2800 SN 281825

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"Very good condition as seen (just a few small scratches), has back panel CV/gate controls. Note: the octave switch had been replaced by a three-position knob, this is actually more robust and easier to use than the original design, for fast range switching while playing live. Has the nicest sounding filter especially at high resonance levels among several whiteface Odyssey’s we've encountered, perhaps because it's been very well calibrated. Hate to see this one go!"
