Questions to EGs and Minimoog

[ld]

IMHO the minimoog did not have 2 full adsr eg's due to cheapness on the
companies part..further they stubbornly refused to upgrade with 2 full adsr's or
osc sync or pwm ecetera..a fellow i know was a moog factory tech from 72-84 he
says customers were allways asking for upgrades to these futures but management
insisted they knew better..they shortsidedly looked down at all competition arp,
sequential, ecet and all the incoming japs, roland, korg ecet..their attitude
was "the public will buy what we make and tell them too!" I am not making this
up ..this is what the fellow swears was going on there.
