Effectology Vol. 19 "How to turn you guitar into a Moog synthesizer"

[Seth Carmody]

This thread is as good as any to ask the question

 

Is it pronounced Moo - g or Moe - g ?

[Agreed]

Hard o, as in "lobe" or "strobe."

A 1/4 inch jacks on the V256 is for guitar or another instrument. This allows the microphone input to modulate the guitar signal using the vocoder section of the unit. To access the pitch correction/gliss and drone effects you need to plug your guitar into the mic XLR jack. I do this using 1/4 to XLR adapters which you can find on eBay.You can also wire your own connectors which is even a better idea, but the adapters work fine.

 

 

ok so XLR in but u can use the standard tele jack out right ?

In 1981 Moog Released the "Moog Rogue" with the intention of rhyming

For the pitch correction/gliss and drone effects you need to plug your guitar into the mic XLR jack AND the XLR output, not the 1/4 output jack.

This video made me realize why I am somewhat finnicky with a traditional envelope filter, and something like what the Microsynth offers is more up my alley, as it just triggers the filter every time the note is played, rather than actively following your picking dynamics. Really cool.

These videos are great, but bill makes it look too easy. One time I had some money to burn so I got the same exact pedals bill was using and still couldn't get the damn sound! Great work as always bill
