There is no "typical" moog filter, only typical ladder stage,
whatever comes after is quite diverse, evrything from differential BJT
to single fet to diff fet amps! Whatever! And distortion figures depends
also on how these are built and trimmed by the bias and ofset pots,
a simple missadjustment of memory moog filter stage or a Moog source
give different distortion figures. Moogish sound is about an
aproximation of sound, add some tinitus to it to and your
simulations will go bananas! ;-)
