[LAU] OT: Old Moog's Never Die

... they just sit in the corner of someone's studio, collecting dust, until some random guy (me) gets called in to do some backup and archiving sysadmin tasks, and stumbles upon them: http://www.restivo.org/misc/mooggasm/ This one is Serial Number 1037/1038 (a FrankenMoog?), made by Mr. Moog himself, in April of 1971. Discrete transistors, NO OP AMPS, apparently impossible to keep in tune. No, it doesn't work, alas. The power amp section works (speakers go BOOM! when the thing is powered up, and noise can be heard when its output is turned up), but only OSC3 can be heard, faintly, as if it were bleed-through. No sound at all from OSC 1 or 2. I don't need yet another project, otherwise I'd offer to buy it, strictly for the cool factor... if it were ever working again it would be SO sweet. -ken
