I played one and it was quite cool. I tried an EH Freq Analyzer ring mod today that I will own eventually at half the price of a moog one.

Yeah the Moog one seems a little expensive. I guess you are probably paying a little for the "Moog" name too. But damn, it sounds like it could do so much.

If I could go back in time, I would have saved a bit of money for the moogerfooger.

Here is why:

AS you know, a ring mod plays a tone X, controlled by a knob. It adds and subtracts the frequency value of that tone from whatever you play.

The Moog has a larger range of frequency's to choose from including very low ones that allow you to get pulsating tremolo sounds more than ring mod.

The moog also has an LFO- which basically adds square or sine vibrato to the internal pitch.

Not to mention that you can control everything with expression pedals or other CV devices. Nice feature.

I have a fooger ring mod and it's something like google. After one year of researches I'm finding some stable intuitions but I still find new things. it's very hallucinogenic!!

where do you connect the exp pedal Krastian? do you use even the 'LFO out'?

Haha! The guy that makes those is actually a good friend of mine and I love his stuff! I want it, but cannot afford it! His newest delay is the bee's knees.

Ha ha.....well I'm actually a drummer. I play some guitar, but I don't have any pedals right now. My friends say that I am better than a lot of people who claim to play guitar even though I think I'm not so hot. I think I have a pretty good ear for music and I'm assuming my experience with rhythm helps me out. I pretty much just take the Jad Fair approach of "the nearer to the body of the guitar the higher of a sound you get and the nearer to the tuning end the lower of a sound you get." I don't really know chords or anything.

Yep I remember Loren from FRTC, and I knew you knew him. Nice guy, well Dolores (I've never been sure of her real name, I thought I felt a slight crush coming on - don't tell her though!) and him were both so cool. I saw their state fair wedding pics! Classy!

i need more of them

CHOUT 09.03.2006 02:15 PM

I own my friend's blue box now. Sounds a lot better after doing that mod to it.

DemonBox 09.03.2006 02:23 PM

I have only one, the Boss MD-2 Mega Distortion, but I don't like it that much. If I use the rhythm pickup, it's sound like I'm playing through a plastic box or something..

Julian! how is the Boss blues driver?

here my boards..the first one is based on the Lee's board, I dont play any sy covers though, rather I love the sound of this platform that is very interesting for me. I added a couple of modulation effects cause they are okay to design my landscapes.




 





 


I'm not a guitarist, rather a taxi driver


 

Screw you guys, I'm going home!

You're making me miss my Blue Box.

CHOUT 10.29.2006 12:36 PM

Here's a recent pic, the small stone is gone now.
 

king_buzzo 10.29.2006 12:39 PM

12?

Danny Himself 10.29.2006 01:31 PM

That's a great rack you got there. The moog looks so 1970s.
