>I was listening to the radio today and the DJ started talking about 
Moog synth's. He pronounced it as Moh -g emphasis on oh sound. Someone 
called in and asked if it was correct. He said he knew beyond a doubt 
that he was correct. I have always heard it as Moo - g. The cow sound 
Moo with a g on the end.

I had always pronounced it Moo-g But watching the recient documentary 
"modulations" by lara lee everyone seemed to be pronouncing it moh-g. 
p.s. modulations is a  really in depth breakdown of the 
evolution of the techno/dance music culture/music from the 70's till 
now highly recomended viewing!! includes Bob moog interviews and all 
the leading underground names (www.modulations.com)
