Posted at September 25, 2006, 8:10 am: So, i thought'd i'd give this idea another crack, this idea has been on the minds of moog enthusiasts in this forum for a while, and figured this would really be a good way to *BUMP* the topic again. thus far i can't find any bugs in the design, although admittedly i've never built anything like this before, so it's purely conjecture. I based this concept off of the old moog modular vco, the voyager, the murf, and the ehx microsynth. if moog is ever gonna put a vco/vca fooger out, this is pretty much the best angle i can think of from a sales POV. anyway, here's my new mock-up for the MF-106: and the back-end: After brainstorming the possibility of a vco-type unit that'd be 2 standard foogers (not cp251) wide, i ditched that idea as it was a waste of good rack space, and would seriously limit how many of this things people could really have around. back to the single-fooger drawing board. naturally, the Murf knobs came to mind next, as this was the only way to really fit an env AND osc section on a standard fooger template. from there, it was mostly trying to triage the knobs into most useful functionality, as well as realism. The only thing i'm not sure about at this point, is the decay knob with the "hold" feature... mostly i just wanted a way to still sneak a sustain knob in there. dunno if that works in a real application or not. here's a quick rundown of the knobs: Frequency: Allows pitch adjustment +7/-7 semitones, just like the voyager Octave: Allows a huge range of octave-based pitch adjustment, going from lfo range (handy) to very high stuff, C6, C7 or so?, close to voyager.. a little different. Wave: Sweepable waveform adjuster, voyager yaddayadda Drive: Doubles as the VCA for the OSC, and for cranking the audio in signal Mix: Mix between the incoming signal, and the raw oscillator. Trigger Sensitivity: adjust this to screw with how frequently the envelope responds to the incoming signal, based on the dynamic content. cool for sputtering gated sfx. Attack: Amplitude EG Attack. like the voyager's . (_/)--\_ Decay: Sort of a bastard child of decay and sustain in this case, as I thought it'd be cool to add some sort of gate-type function sustain functionality to this unit SOMEWHERE. ...as to whether this is something that would be doable, i'm not sure. _/(--)\_ Release: Amplitude EG Release. like the voyager's. _/--(\_) Bypass switch: Disables all, except still allows audio input to be warmed up/overdriven with the drive knob. ---- BACK PANEL: Audio In: Hardwired to the Osc freq, so that the osc will follow the incoming signal's pitch. By turning the mix knob all the way over to zero, you would effectively be able to run anything you like into the A/^D-\R without the osc present. This could be great for a multitude of purposes, which i'll refrain from going over. Freq: White labels = inputs. This controls the pitch of the oscillator. Gate: Takes +5v gate signals to open the EG. Wave: cv control input for the wave knob. Mix: cv control input for the mix knob. also an opportunity for ring-mod-like sounds with a audio-range lfo going in there. Audio Out: audio output of the mix. Freq Out: This sends out the pitch cv of the oscillator, useful for everything cv or audio related. see above, too Env Out: Similar to the output of the MF-101. A cv output based on the dynamics of the incoming signal. Sync In: Forces the oscillator to slave itself to the incoming cv signal; that is, restart it's waveform from the beginning, each time the incoming cv signal starts a new waveform cycle. Very cool. ----- That's all i got. god i hope this happens in some form or another. in the meanwhile, i'll be waiting in line for my LP...
