[sdiy] Modifying Multimoog to sound more like Minimoog or Rogue?

[Chad Coffman]

Can something like this be adapted to other synths as well? I posed a similar question to the AH list recently and only received blank stares. Basically, my sh101 sounds extremely flat next to my mg1. I found a simple tb303 mod that boosted the low end by simply replacing a capacitor. I thought that may be the same effect could easily be achieved on the 101, but no one was able to provide any useful information.

  Hi

  I guess that the input coupling capasitor C507(.47uF) of the VCF is very low. Increasing it to 4.7uF makes bass response better

  Hi everyone:

  I am getting my Multimoog out of storage soon. My Moog experience for the
  past several years has been with my Rogue, which has a much more overdriven
  sound. Is there a simple (reversable) mod that will allow me to get a
  similar sound out of the Multimoog? Has anyone tried such a mod?

  I have Multimoog schematics, if anyone has a few resistors to recommend
  altering. I don't care about emulating the Q drop off for lower
  frequencies - I know that this helps with the Minimoog bass sound, but I
  like using the filter as an FMable oscillator on the Multimoog.

  Thanks,

  Sean Costello (who barely ever writes to this list nowadays, as my nose is
  usually buried within the guts of a DSP compiler)
