DIY Ribbon Contr.: using CP-251 to attenuate 10v CV source?

I'm going to try to put together a basic ribbon controller with just a bare-bones circuit, as seen here: http://www.paia.com/ProdArticles/dual-ribbon-howto.htm . Perhaps some of you have already seen that or built one yourself. I have never built a circuit or learned how to read schematics really ye...

Re: About as far away from a Moog as you can get

I saw this and I think I heard its supposed to be $60 US...Anything higher than $50 is a bit too high for me. Maybe someone can make a little mon-mons on the side modifying this thing for people. CV outs for all the stuff including the ribbon controller, and CV ins. It might not even have enough roo...

Quality of patch cables used for CV control

I was wondering if the quality of the build and materials used with instrument patch cables can cause any signal degradation while using them to patch control voltages around. I'm a guitarist, and in the guitar tone world, some people are very finicky about their cables and how they affect their ton...

Re: cp-251 version differences

yeah why did Moog make the s/h voltage so low? It works ok to modulate pitch (could be better), but its weak with the LPF and other parameters. Like Ebo is saying, it would be nice to use the mixer for other things than just getting the S/H where you want it. Would have been nice for a width or rang...

well you know the only true analog delays are tape echos. The BBD-based analog units are digital/analog hybrids if I remember...I forget exactly because its too early in the morning for this, something about the time domain/sampling being a digital function while the thing being sampled and repeated...

no problem, I just re-read your post and realized that was probably what you were saying. If you have a tube amp and want to add some more delicious, analog warmth, and possibly spring reverb if the amp has that, miking up the amp is great. If you are just using a solid state amp to produce tones ex...

unless the amp has a labeled "line out" jack, you shouldn't ever do that. If you were to try to feed the speaker out to something as if it were a line out, you would could very well be destroying your amplifier, as well as overloading the input device to point of destruction. PC sound card...

for your phaser you're not using the aux out are you? I figure probably not, but doesn't the phase keep going through that output even when bypassed? Sometimes the solutions are simple, easily-overlooked things. BTW, I've seen your youtube videos with your ARP axxe and roland rs-09, that is the blee...

yeah if the Moog guitar was even close to being a 360 systems guitar, I would buy it in a heartbeat (that and if it wasn't overpriced to all hell.)

The Moog guitar just uses ebow type technology built into the guitar. Very cool, but its not an analog synth guitar, its just a wacky guitar.

Oxygene is a pretty sweet album with some excellent textures and instruments used, but I don't understand why people always freak out about it?

if you have an equivalent to craigslist in the UK, look for people who are moving who are giving away pianos. While they might need to be tuned, the price for tuning is far less than buying a new upright piano. If you're looking for a baby grand or a grand, you probably wouldn't be posting here.

you should use a tube amp head (more watts = more clean power). If you want to get down in the dirt, consider a 30-50 watt amp. If you never want a smidge of glorious tube drive on those sawtooth waves, go with something been 100-200 watts. To go with that you'd want a cabinet of either full range s...

you've got to remember Moog is a synth company, not a guitar company. Personally, I think they need a total overhaul of the Moog guitar. Keep all the electronics and guts and working of it, but it needs a vintage-contemporary look, like an SG or Strat, no sharp edges or drastic assemmetry. They need...

Get out of my thread Subtronik, I don't care that you're a millionaire. $30 for a shirt is one thing, but when a $23 dollar shirt has $15 dollars shipping, that's where I draw the line. Its obscene. There is NO reason why it should cost that muc...

I didn't realize it was discussed already, I only pop in here from time to time. I feel for you UK'ers and other folks who have to pay big bucks to ship from the US. I don't know where the shirts ship from, but if its anywhere near NC where Moog is based, that's less than 500 miles from me, I've nev...
