Well, I cloned the Moog Modular stuff and therefore "looked under the = skirt" of the systems. I like the Moog concepts and the sound of course, but you pay a lot of = money for the branding and for non sound related technology what can be = obtained cheaper. The most sound influencing modules are filters, as 904abc, 907 and 914. = These modules form the magic of Moog sounds. Other modules: VCOs: Mainly function generators. A square is a square, a sine is a = sine, a saw is a saw and so on. Nothing special about the waveforms, = exception is the Moog saw of the Mini, which can be created by simply = mixing a saw and a triangle though. There are some functional specials = like the phase-lock-loop-like sync mechanism of the 921 or the = semioctave thing which I don't consider as useful. Others might think = different. Enevelopes, VCAs, signal router, mixer, sequencer etc. don't create or = influence the "specials" of a Moog sound, this is standard = functionality. On the other hand it is cool to be owner of a Moog Modular in my = opinion, especially from a collectors point of view, but just for the = sound they are just too expensive. -Carsten -----Urspr=C3=BCngliche Nachricht----- Von: Marshall Craig [mailto:xxxxxx@xx.xxx]=20 Gesendet: Mittwoch, 18.
