These sounds will get you the sound of Moog’s The Source as if you purchased it in 1981. I sampled the best sounds to my ears., and I was after mapped synth sounds.Įach of the 11 Factory sounds is offered in both Mono and Polyphonic versions – either with no or very little effects. Once I got The Source back from the shop, it had a set of factory programs in it. I took a great instrument, made it better, and sold it to a very happy user. The lack of pulse-width modulation was a non-starter for me.
After purchase, reconditioning and shipment, I sold it at a profit – but I don’t regret it. If you want to know about the The Source – you should know that I sold it about a year ago to a vintage keyboard enthusiast in Switzerland. In this library, you will receive at least 525 samples and at least 50 presets – I’m programming more all the time, as these samples are really good.
The Source was also used by Toby Smith, keyboard player from the band Jamiroquai, Depeche Mode and most notably by New Order, especially on the track "Blue Monday". The instrument was used extensively by the band Devo on their 1981 album New Traditionalists, and the band also appeared in early print ads for the keyboard. The Source was made in at least 2 versions the latter offering more voltage control options. The unit also features a rudimentary sequencer. For modulation, the Source features LFO and sample and hold. There are two ADSR envelope generators that can be set in single or multi trigger modes, one for the VCF and one for the VCA. The 24dB/octave VCF has parameters for keyboard tracking, cutoff frequency, resonance, and envelope amount.

Programmed presets can be saved to an audiocassette interface to free up the onboard memory for additional new patches. In addition to the memory capable of holding 16 presets, the Source features a 37-note keyboard, and two VCOs that can be selected among three waveforms and three octaves. Sound wise it is considered to sound more like the original Moog Minimoog than any other synthesizer made by Moog and was introduced as its replacement. The design was also the first (and only) Moog synthesizer to feature a flat-panel membrane keyboard to replace the standard buttons, knobs and sliders, along with multihued panel graphics that were very different from anything Moog offered at the time.
#Wavelab vs dsp quattro Patch
The Source was Moog's first synthesizer to offer patch memory storage. From there, I used a number of editors to get you the samples you hear today, including SoundForge Mac, DSP Quattro, and Wavelab. Once I got it home, I sampled it on minor thirds at 48Khz, 24-bit through a PreSonus Studio Live 32 console over Firewire directly into my Mac. Also changed the keyboard current source 4558 chip in case strained as cheap part Replaced a bad 100 ohm resistor replaced to re-enable keyboard scaling.Performed the “Crazy Fox” 5V regulator fix – I didn’t know such a thing existed.
He found several issues, and got this baby back up and running. I took it to the local Moog repair source in the Bay Area – This Old Synth. Being a guitarist, he had no interested in what was (then) a non-working synthesizer. One of my work colleagues found this in a closet he was cleaning out. Just like our Big Block: Clavinet / Pianet library, there’s an interesting story behind this instrument.
