Why does this iconic Minimoog have a pitch ribbon?

video upload by moogfoundation

"Short answer: to bend pitch like the greats its owner -- keyboardist, synth programmer, and musical director David Rosenthal, formerly of Rainbow -- was listening to. Enter here; the raffle ENDS August 31 at 11:59 p.m. ET/3:59 a.m. UTC: https://bit.ly/SummerMinimoogRaffle2022

We're awarding this fully restored vintage Minimoog to one lucky winner."

A few pics from the raffle.

Update: apparently there are at least two other Minimoog with ribbon controllers. See below.

Another Minimmog with pitch ribbon via @MrDuckbutt

"The Minimoog I bought from @BrianKehew long ago has this same mod. Geddy Lee’s Minimoog from his Keyboard magazine ‘84 shoot has it as well. Seen it online a handful of times - I wonder how many of these are out there"

And one with it on the left side panel via Till Kopper @realqwave

"And this is not the only Minimoog with a pitchbend ribbon. Mine got this too. I had a warn out pitchwheel when I bought my cheap Minimoog 1983. I built a new housing myself (beech wood) and added the ribbon. The modwheel moved to the left. The right wheel is not connected."

Monome Norns Barcode + VCA🎚| Eurorack Synthesizers Jam

video upload by Andrea Marzilli

"This is about VCA modulation. 🎛

How much I love changing with my hands the level on the stereo image using differente LFOs.
And this is what I’m doing here!
Belong from Barcode script is sending the main sawtooth-ish noisy drone sound to the entire system, heavy modulated by two different LFO’s from @mutable Stages. @noiseeng Desmodus Versio is always at the end of my patches, because of its incredible power in creating the magical atmosphere I always need.

That’s it, simple but effective.
Hope you enjoy!

Headphones as always! 🎧"

Ouroboros Tube VCO Demo - Mark Steiner

video upload by Mark Steiner

"Some of this shows the sound as is with just a sequencer changing pitch. Much of it also then shows the sound with a VCO modulating, mainly at audio rates. Fun stuff! Long, but just how I'd want such a demo if I were thinking of getting one.

This module is no longer made but Ortho is working on another Tube VCO currently."
